Abstract
ABSTRACT While post-structural scholarship exerts an increasing influence in the social sciences, the post-coach remains a distant concept because all coaches and coach educators are immersed in a humanist and positivist coaching logic that works as a perspective shaping, filtering, and diluting post-structural coach education. To create spaces for a broader acceptance of the post coach, in this article we, move beyond philosophical conjecture by addressing the consequences of humanist and positivist assumptions in coaching to set the tone and contexts for the post coach. That is, we reveal through a series of very short stories how positivist, humanist and post-structural assumptions show up in coaching practice, the effects they produce, the actions they make possible, and the limits they set.
