My HR Friend

Surprised to receive this message from a former HR friend Yes Alan, truth hurts. Surely my friend the honest, candid and unvarnished 1-to-1 coaching feedback you provide clients have caused an unintended narcissistic wound, or few over the years?  Coaching does not really involve feedback, rather motivation for a client to self-reveal. Perhaps this person would genuinely benefit from executive coaching! To my friend: "What is causing you to bring up narcissism?"
