Highly readable and practical. The best I have found.

Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2016

The earlier editions of this book opened up the area of coaching and it’s utility in business. This edition simplifies the coaching model and makes it even more user friendly.

I particularly liked the chapter on the coaching friendly culture and the coaching relationship.

As an active consultant and former professor of management I especially was pleased that the authors interviewed a variety of executives and managers to add additional examples of how their principles of coaching actually applied in organizations.

Particularly useful in this edition is the chapter on “Distance Coaching”, since much of what happens today between manager and employee can occur when geographical separation is a reality.

This book is a highly readable and practical tool for managers who wish to create a learning organization built around coaching. It is the best coaching book I have found.
