The charity, Coaching Inside
and Out (CIAO), conducts work in prisons and
beyond, challenging and supporting people through
coaching. This article presents some of the charity’s
work to date, exploring the overlaps, differences
and possibilities between the two coaching worlds.
The article raises a number of key questions for
coaches, such as: How can you achieve the greatest
possible change? Who else might benefit from your
coaching skills?
