About This Topic

Like a compare and contrast essay, a contrast essay asks you to choose two or more items and ideas and write about them.  However, instead of highlighting similarities between the two things, a contrast essay will describe how they are different.  It is important to note that, in order to have an effective contrast essay, there must be some similarities or shared middle ground between the things being contrasted.  A contrast essay that focused on the differences between a roller skate and the planet Jupiter would contain a lot of contrast, but would be almost incoherent.  However, a contrast essay that focused on the differences in Earth and Jupiter would start from the point where they are similar (planets in the same solar system) and then highlight differences.

The Purpose of Executive Coaching: Past and Present Views
Abstract In the recent past, organizational and executive coaching has continued to gain in popularity as firms seek to enhance the ability of leaders and executives to achieve both organizational and professional goals. In my view, the growing popularity of executive coaching is also in one way or the other rooted in the critical role organizational/executive coaches play in developing leaders in their current job setting. In this text, I describe my past views in regard to the purpose of organizational/executive coaches. Further, I highlight my current views on the purpose of coaching based on the ideas I have obtained over time from various sources. In the final sections of the text, I compare and contrast my past (initial) and present (enhanced) views on the purpose of executive coaching.
