“Because there is a stigma attached to therapy, the first line of intervention in any therapeutic sense at the workplace happens a lot through the coaching space,” says Suparna Banerjee, a Gurgaon-based executive coach who is certified by ICF (the International Coach Federation) and works with corporate leaders.
Where coaching brings out the fundamental potential in the person’s life, therapy works at identifying and treating problems in a client.
