continues until adulthood.

======================
Hi,

It's Vikki Brock here and I am doing my PhD dissertation on the evolution of professional coaching.
My intent is to identify and acknowledge the people who shaped and are shaping the coaching field internationally. As such, the purpose of this survey is to:
* Recognize key people and organizations who have contributed most to professional coaching.
* Create an International Who's Who of key influencers on the coaching field.
* Identify individuals and organizations for follow-on interviews to gather further details on the evolution of coaching.

You are eligible to complete this survey if you are a(n):
* Established coaching organization
* Coach training school or program
* Academic or education institution who offers or is considering offering coaching education
* Significant purchaser or provider of coaching
* Professional in a related profession such as psychology, organization development, human resources, etc
* Professional coach

I appreciate your participation in this survey. The survey should take 15-20 minutes to complete - your input will make a difference in creating an accurate representation of the history of the coaching field.
You have the opportunity to leave your name and contact information at the end of the survey if you would like to receive the aggregate results of this survey. All your answers are anonymous and confidential, used for research purposes only. Your contact information will not be associated with your questionnaire responses. Upon survey completion, you will also have an opportunity to nominate yourself for the "Who's Who in Coaching".

Please complete the survey by Friday September 30, 2005. Surveys are welcome thru the end of 2005 and the first round of analysis will begin October 1, 2005.

I ask you to enlist your members, colleagues, clients, graduates and/or students to complete this survey and contribute their legacy to the evolution of coaching.
