Publisher's Summary

Coaching is a way of managing, a way of treating people, a way of thinking, a way of being. Coaching has matured into an invaluable profession fit for our times and this fourth edition of the most widely read coaching book takes it to the next frontier.

Good coaching is a skill that requires a depth of understanding and plenty of practice if it is to deliver its astonishing potential. This extensively revised and expanded new audio edition of Coaching for Performance clearly explains the principles of coaching and illustrates them with examples of high performance from business and sport. It continues to follow the GROW sequence (Goals, Reality, Options, Will) and clarifies the process and practice of coaching by describing what coaching really is, what it can be used for, when and how much it can be used, and who can use it well.

A treasure trove of ideas and insights

There is enough in here for newbie coaches and managers to get on their way. It is written in a simple lucid that is easy to understand and apply to real situations; but is more than that. There are nuggets of profound insights; that will make you think and reflect; and may even change you; if you are ready.

Coaching based Leadership

A good book for any person serious about pursuing coaching based leadership.

It is a good primer to get the initial feel about this subject.

More detailed coverage of “Coaching Questions” could have been done.
