Coaching

Coaching is a form of development in which a person called a coach supports a learner or client in achieving a specific personal or professional goal by providing training and guidance. The learner is sometimes called a coachee. Occasionally, coaching may mean an informal relationship between two people, of whom one has more experience and expertise than the other and offers advice and guidance as the latter learns; but coaching differs from mentoring in focusing on specific tasks or objectives, as opposed to more general goals or overall development.

Method

The method of scientific investigation is nothing but the expression of the necessary mode of working of the human mind.

Thomas Henry Huxley, "Our Knowledge of the Causes of the Phenomena of Organic Nature" (1863).

Method

Traditional scientific method has always been at the very best 20-20 hindsight. It's good for seeing where you've been. It's good for testing the truth of what you think you know, but it can't tell you where you ought to go.

Robert M. Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Ch. 24 (1974).

Method

Imposing an alleged uniform general method upon everybody breeds mediocrity in all but the very exceptional. And measuring originality by deviation from the mass breeds eccentricity in them.

John Dewey, Democracy and Education, Section 13: The Nature of Method, Method as General and as Individual (1916).
