| Advantages of e-coaching | Description |
| Enhanced learning flexibility
| e-coaching offers better flexibility in sustaining open communication and it increases options for how, and at what time, and between whom the interaction occurs. E-coaching makes trainers more reachable to the trainees and helps overcome time and distance limitations to enable the trainee to enjoy effective training engagements. If there are no time zone differences, preparation limits or lost time due to travel and coordination, e-coaching programs can be convenient includes and more time can be allocated for consultation, meetings or communication. |
| Greater Training Pool | e-coaching offers accessibility to a larger and more varied pool of trainers. It gives a chance to management to offer training, enabling managers to link working staff with knowledge and understanding in a quick and cost-effective manner (either inside or outside the firm). It enhances the chances of voluntary trainer-trainee coupling that have proved to increase the trainees’ satisfaction levels. As e-coaching is not restricted by time or location and is less dependent on social controls of face-to-face communication, the grouping can be done according to compatibility and a few other aspects linked to demographics, locality, or convenience to access. E-coaching can also enhance cross-cultural bonds that are beneficial for the international economy. |
| Social Justice | e-coaching places a greater focus on communal values rather than communal traits, demographics and position. A long-distance communication technology can make it more challenging to perceive authority and rank, hence reducing social distance. It occurs because the technologies that depend on written messages are less impacted by graphical clues, individualities and social preferences that inexplicably hinder interest groups. In some ways, “functioning blind” from a distant location can help individuals avoid several instant evaluations according to a person’s physical appearance. E-coaching might be particularly advantageous for females in those areas of education that are typically deemed inappropriate for them. |
| Support for Telecommuters | Telecommuters can feel secluded and managers who are made responsible for handling remote workers can use e-coaching to help them feel attached, embrace their performance, enhance efficiency, and encourage continuing professional development ( |
| Scalability and Regularity | Basic training cannot be sufficient whereas e-coaching enables companies to deliver regular training and provide valuable resources across the organisation (not only on an individual level) ( |
