The webinar is based on two studies recently completed by Institute of Coaching Harnisch scholars -  Alyssa McGonagle and Gary Sforzo/ Miranda Kaye. It will address how health coaching can be beneficial for improving well-being and healthy behaviors.

Alyssa McGonagle will present her study on the role of health coaching for employees working with a chronic illness. Gary Sforzo will present his study on the effectiveness of coaching in augmenting a workplace wellness program.  Both studies were designed as randomized controlled trials (RCT), collected coaching outcome data at several time points before and after the coaching, and ​reported​ the impact​ of health coaching on several​ ​outcomes​.​
