Coaching Inside Government: Empowering Change at Every Level

How can coaching unlock change from within public institutions?

Join this interactive peer exchange to explore how coaching can build state capacity by supporting public officials — from senior leaders to mid-level managers to frontline staff. Drawing on real-world examples from around the globe, we’ll reflect on how coaching is already transforming governance, even in low-resource contexts.

We’ll discuss:
• Where coaching has the most leverage inside government systems
• How to make coaching more accessible and inclusive
• What role development agencies and funders can play in scaling its impact

This session is designed for coaches, public servants, development practitioners, and anyone curious about systems change through a coaching lens.

Format: Highly participatory, with breakout groups and space for reflection and connection.
