Summary
Top performers in every field have coaches. Today’s managers are primarily responsible for the bottom-line performance of their employees, and so it makes sense that many of them would have coaches. Just as in sports, when great athletes become coaches, many of the best managers are incorporating the essence of coaching into their management style. The Coaching Revolution presents the best practices of some of today’s managers—best practices that are changing good companies into great places to work, transforming teams of champions into championship teams. Managers who adopt these behaviors are building better companies by becoming manager-coaches and leading coaching revolutions.
