The Letter

by Mark K. House, Professional Certified Coach (PCC) – ICF| February 28, 2023

Read this blog by inviteCHANGE coaching education alumni, Mark K. House, PCC, to explore the relationship between coaching, business, and love. See how Mark uses music in his coaching practice with business leaders to keep love at the forefront.

"Love is not something we talk about in business much, but when I decided to use music to talk about leadership with that as the soundtrack, I should have recognized it shows up all the time. And truthfully, it is always just below the surface, in the realm of the emotions that we try to hide with masks and clever phrases like “it’s not personal, it’s just business.” And particularly after the last 2 years, we are fooling ourselves if we don’t realize that love is present in business all the time."
