Synopsis

In this second volume of Coaching to the Human Soul Alan Sieler breaks more ground in the coaching literature, as well as in the study of emotions. By addressing the nature of genuine personal transformation Alan skilfully demonstrates the centrality of moods and mood management for profound shifts in our perceptions of what is possible in life and our behavioral effectiveness. Drawing on significant developments in philosophy and biology he articulates the ideas of major thinkers in a way that is comprehensible and applicable. In this process Alan adds important intellectual and practical depth to the concept of Emotional Intelligence. Like Volume I Coaching to the Human Soul, this book is a rich source of personal and professional learning.

Review

Volume II of Coaching to the Human Soul is an essential resource for any coach committed to doing serious work with clients. The author clearly presents a proven methodology that can quickly and deeply shift seemingly intractable client breakdowns. Rich in accessible examples and generous in references for further study, Alan Sieler's book is a foundational text in the emerging discipline of coaching. --James Flaherty, Executive Coach and Director, New Ventures West, and Author of Evoking Excellence in Others, United States

Alan Sieler has done it again in Volume II of Coaching to the Human Soul. He eloquently outlines the role of moods and emotions in deep change, for living a fulfilled and meaningful life and being connected with our soul. In this volume Alan shows that emotions and moods play an indispensable role in our relationship with ourselves and our relationships with others. He challenges us to walk the talk in understanding and applying emotions to our every day living and learning. People in leadership roles challenged by the demands of modern life and work will benefit enormously by reading and applying the emotional wisdom Alan conveys in a practical and relevant way. --Dennis Jackson, Executive Coach and Co-founder, Nirvana Consulting, South Africa

Alan s second volume is not simply a book for coaching specialists, although they will find it immensely valuable, but for all of us seeking effective ways of meeting the complex challenges of the 21st century. Thanks to Alan s work people will be able to see that coaching is not simply a latest fad or fashion, and that Ontological Coaching provides an invaluable opportunity for learning how to create successful individual lives and well-functioning families, communities and organisations. --Peter Shotton, Founder and Managing Director, Amago, United Kingdom
