Each of the media types described in this section may have a place in support-
ing aspects of the coaching process. However, as they address distinct sensory
qualities and bodily experiences, different media produce different experiences.
For instance, the same coaching contents may be perceived differently when
read in an e-mail than when conveyed in real-time through a video encounter.
These differences are explored in the following section.
How digital media shape the coaching experience1
With his concept of Being-in-the-world, Heidegger (1962) noted that the
human being makes sense of things, while essentially always being situated
and immersed in the world. This relation between human and lifeworld can
be mediated through technology. In its mediating role, technology transforms
human experience (Ihde, 1979). So, how might the earlier discussed different
types of technologies mediate and shape the coaching experience?
The role of technological media as the means to human experience has been
explained by Ihde’s (1979, 2013) different types of human-technology relations,
out of which embodiment relations, hermeneutic relations and alterity relations
are of particular interest for coaching:
Embodiment relations: In this type of symbiotic human-technology relation,
technology becomes perceptually transparent (Ihde, 2013, p. 8), in the sense that
it tends to withdraw from our awareness. Ihde (1979, 2013) used the character-
istic example of the telescope, which creates a transformed view of the world
and one that differs from the view one would see through their eyes only. In this
example, one becomes less aware of the telescope, or otherwise said, the tele-
scope becomes transparent as one sees through it (Ihde, 2013, p. 10). Transfer-
ring this to a coaching context, the technology that mediates the coach’s or the
client’s experience retracts to the background as the coach or client embodies
the technology. The coach speaks through the telephone to the client or sees the
client through the screen in a video call. The client experiences a virtual world
by manipulating the physical interface that is the computer. While the clients
