Abstract

Leadership development is an ever-present issue in a constantly changing and complex world in which organizations increasingly need leaders who are prepared for new contexts. Coaching, as a practice of personal and professional development and as a skill, has emerged as a way of promoting the development of leaders. The aim of this research is to explore the influence of coaching skills on the commitment and development of leaders in organizations. Results show a positive relationship between leaders' coaching skills and organizational commitment, highlighting coaching as an effective tool for promoting employee commitment in organizations. This research did not show that coaching competences influence the implementation of leadership development practices within the organization, or even the promotion of coaching as a practice. Finally, no evidence was found that organizational commitment influenced the existence of leadership development practices. Implications and recommendations for future studies were also presented.
