Healthy Power Coaching is a methodology to help leaders make decisions that influence positive outcomes while avoiding harm. This includes building skills to confront abuses of power while also learning to do the “inner work” needed to lead with integrity.
The concept of Healthy Power is a framework for understanding your relationship with power in the context of organizational, societal, and global systems of power.
Healthy Power is understood in contrast to unhealthy power—which can be characterized as the use of forms of leverage that cause harm, such as through acts of force, fraud, and abuse.
In practice, Healthy Power can be characterized as the use of forms of leverage that create generative, win-win outcomes that are inclusive and mitigate harm equally for all involved. The stance of Healthy Power doesn’t view collateral damage as a necessary evil for overcoming complex challenges with moral implications.
