“…First, ethics, which often entails complex situations where we are unaware of, unsure, or disagree about what norms and values should prevail (Reinecke & Ansari, 2015), is definitely an interesting lens through which to study sensemaking (Parmar, 2014; Reinecke & Ansari, 2015; Sonenshein, 2007, 2009). Second, coaching has been portrayed as a sensemaking and sensegiving device (Du Toit, 2007, 2014; Palus, Horth, Selvin, & Pulley, 2003; Stelter, 2007) that is particularly suited for transitions and challenging periods, helping “individuals [to] see ambiguity and uncertainty for what it is and then act accordingly” (Du Toit, 2007: 24). Coaching is a practice well suited to stepping away and breaking free from the dominant organization and daily routine to reflect on past and future paths followed and choices made.…”

“…First, described as a sensemaking device (Du Toit, 2007, 2014; Palus, Horth, Selvin, & Pulley, 2003; Stelter, 2007) that involves a coach, who—by means of questions, reflection, and feedback—helps process information in a timely manner and develop routes and choices within the wider context (Du Toit, 2007), coaching is a very favorable context in which to study sensemaking. While the few existing research studies on sensemaking in coaching largely focus on the benefits to the coachee (see Du Toit, 2007, 2014; Stelter, 2007), our work stands out by focusing on the sensemaking process performed by and for the coach. Second, it offers a much-needed exploration of the complexity of an emerging and growing $2.3 billion industry (worldwide in 2015; see ICF, 2016) where the prevalent normative and rational approaches (Allan, Passmore, & Mortimer, 2011) fail to equip coaches to deal with the “twists and turns” and “hollows and bumps” (Fatien Diochon & Nizet, 2015: 278, 298) of the practice.…”

ABSTRACT:The ethical sensemaking approach stands as an essential alternative to the dominant rational and objectivist paradigm of ethical decision-making in organizations. From this perspective, this research explores the intrapersonal interplay of emotions and reflexivity in ethical sensemaking. We analyzed thirty-seven semi-structured interviews conducted with executive coaches sharing a critical incident about an issue they framed as ethical. Our findings show that their ethical decisions unfolded over a three-phase emotional reflexive sensemaking process, where reflexivity allowed for the management of emotions in the form of emotional awareness, emotional unpacking, and emotional (dis)engagement. Therefore, we portray ethics as a fabric, produced through the knitting of emotions and reflexivity. And, while ethics certainly appear to be produced by the subject, we suggest a reciprocal relationship, whereby the very fabric of ethics contributes to the production of the ethical subject.

Quatro categorias foram definidas com base nos objetivos do trabalho, no referencial teórico e na avaliação das entrevistas.
