Thankful for our community
As we look to the Thanksgiving holiday, we are thankful for our community at Coaching Buttons.
Thanks to our community
We started the Coaching Buttons website a year and a half ago as a way to support a community of IT leaders. Since launching the website in July 2023, we have published over 100 articles. These cover a variety of IT leadership topics, including:
Leadership reflections like What the pandemic taught us about virtualizing our organization and The four qualities of IT leaders
Coaching reflections such as My coaching journey from Zero to Linux Hero and How to nurture open leaders by letting go
Hands-on skills such as How to lead an affinity exercise
Leadership concepts like The benefits of fractional leadership
Strategic planning such as Present and future needs with SWOT
Open leadership topics like 4 factors in open decision-making and Applying an Open Decision Framework
We published one article per week in the early months, but over time we’ve expanded our publication schedule to two articles per week, on Mondays and Wednesdays. Today, our author community includes 11 authors, and it’s always growing.
Our gift to you
We wanted to say thank you to our community of readers and authors. Coaching Buttons is what you make it, and we are here to support all leaders from within and across the organization.
To put the spotlight on our community, we are planning to collect several popular articles from the website and publish them as free ebooks. Like everything we share at Coaching Buttons, these ebooks will be released under a Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike license. We will also publish a print edition via our print partners at Lulu.com.
We’re excited to share these free ebooks in December. Look for details on the website in the next few weeks!
Join the community! We welcome everyone to contribute to Coaching Buttons. If you'd like to share your leadership perspective, contact our editor at jim@hallmentum.com.
