S.M.Herald - BOOKSHELF

"..this democratic style of exploring, learning and transferring knowledge is a boom industry. The authors, international coaching experts, go into the discipline's history and basic principles before advising on how coaching can be used to change or develop organizations. There's advice on choosing the right coach, and how accomplished professionals can become external coaches and  how managers can become internal coaches, techniques to ensure coaching is effective and dozens of case studies on how it has worked in practice. There's also analysis of  various industry and business sectors where coaching has been successfully applied. This book will be of most use to people working in the Human Services field or to managers, team leaders, trainers, consultants or practitioners who have a coaching brief."

Institute of Management -Journal 
"...Behind this book's unassuming cover there lies a thorough, wide-ranging, lucid and practical discussion of one of today's most vital but misunderstood HR disciplines.."   

Peer Coaching Resources.  - Dr. R. Carr 
"..This book, written in non-academic prose and strewn with practical examples, is the most comprehensive book yet authored on the contemporary involvement of coaches in the business and executive development world. The book can serve as both a reference text for experienced coaches and a "how-to" book for coaches seeking instruction. The book is also appropriate for those who want to make decisions about using coaches or establishing a coaching culture or academics or trainers seeking a primary text on coaching for use in an educational setting.."  

HR & Training -Newsletter
"...is essential reading for all current and potential coaches, all individuals managing people and those looking for their own private coach."
