Site Full Video: Powers of Ten™ (1977)
Coaching, like Powers of Ten, is an adventure in perspective. This short film by Charles and Ray Eames zooms out by powers of ten, shifting our view from a picnic in Chicago to the outer edges of the cosmos—and then back in, all the way to a single proton. It’s a perfect metaphor for the coaching process: expanding and contracting our lens, discovering new patterns, and seeing the familiar in new ways.
