Synopsis

Before now, coaching was a muddle of single-model approaches, so finding the right model to get the best results was never assured. In Performance Coaching, Dr Angus McLeod brings together the fundamentals of ALL the best practice in coaching and builds up from there. Unlike so many of the coaching books already on the market, this book is for coaches, not clients. Fast, accessible and clearly written, Performance Coaching is comprehensive and rich in real examples of real executives achieving real success in real-life situations.

Dr Angus McLeod is a well-known and respected coach through his practice with individuals, teams and professional coaches. He is widely published in the United States and Europe on coaching and team development issues. Angus continues to influence the coaching profession through his on-line mentoring service 'Ask Max' and leadership of The Coaching Foundation, a not-for-profit organisation that offers career development opportunities to professional coaches.

About this title

From the Author:

This book is written to illustrate real coaching-conversations for real issues and desired goals. This readable style of presentation makes the text read more like a novel, than an endless slog!
These are issues and desires that the people who need your help are facing. By reading through, you can identify and become involved with real people.
Where there is more to explain, these are posted in boxes, so you can stay with the text or story without interruption; you can come back to any deeper information when you are ready, not when an author thinks you are!
All the stories, issues, goals, coaching-tools, references and names used in the stories are x-referenced to allow you easy access to anything you read earlier but now need quickly to help someone with the exact issue.
This book is a wonderful way to access powerful thinking and technique, to transform the performance and well-being of others.
