Deniers90 Three aspects of career coaching via Skype that are not covered in this study stand out as needing investigation: firstly, an analysis of Skype-mediated coach- ing from both the coachee and the coach’s perspective could give insights into the interaction and mutual influence on behaviour and perception taking place in video-mediated coaching. Secondly, cultural differences in attitudes and valuations of coaching through a web cam are worth researching. With the different levels of comfort with eye contact in different cultures being a well researched fact (Bohannon et al., 2012, p. 178), it would be helpful to understand how this impacts the effect of a form of coaching where constant eye contact is enforced by the medium. And finally, it remains to be analysed whether there are differences in how people from var- ious age groups engage with this type of coaching. This research interest could be geared towards coachees of different age groups; but with many career prac- titioners being »digital immigrants« working with »digital natives« (Bimrose & Barnes, 2010), it is also worth investigating how coaches and coachees work together across a possible digital generation gap.
