In 2018, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center launched the MD Anderson Leadership Institute with a bold vision: developing leaders at all levels by integrating coaching into its leadership development programs. This commitment to continuous learning fostered growth across the organization at every level — from clinicians and researchers to administrators and staff.
This case study examines how MD Anderson embedded coaching throughout its organization, highlighting their partnership with Rice University’s CoachRICE program to train internal coaches and equip leaders with ICF-aligned coaching skills. The impact has been significant: increased promotions, improved employee retention, and measurable enhancements in leadership effectiveness and engagement.
