The document discusses resources, structures, and domains as they relate to leadership coaching. It defines resources as physical, intellectual, emotional, and social. Structures are how leaders access resources, like pipes that channel resources from one place to another. Structures can enable or restrict access to resources. Domains are the places where structures deliver resources. The goal of exploring these concepts is to help leaders and coaches understand how to better access and manage resources.
