Working in the not-for-profit sector is often a calling rather than just a career. People come into these roles with deep compassion, a drive to make a difference, and a willingness to walk alongside those experiencing hardship, trauma, and systemic injustice. But while the mission is meaningful, the emotional toll can be significant.

One-on-one coaching is effective, but to truly leverage learning in the workplace, peer group coaching is the way of the future, says Aly McNicoll. It’s a cost-effective way to cascade coaching throughout an entire organisation.

I hope you enjoy them and find them helpful.
