5.0 out of 5 stars Whole-person coaching...a powerful approach., 28 Feb 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Co-active Coaching: New Skills for Coaching People Toward Success in Work and Life (Hardcover)

Co-coaching is distinctive in that it involves both the coach and the client; it is also referred to as personal/professional coaching because it addresses the whole person (the whole of their life).

Many books we have reviewed on this subject, while of value within the workplace, do not strive to address the multidimensional nature of the individual. In contrast, the approach presented here is distinctly holistic.

The authors' offer a model plus a set of skills and techniques. The book is filled with specifics and excellent insights, and gives extensive guidance about how to be highly effective in coaching. About 75 pages are devoted to "The Coach's Toolkit," consisting of forms, checklists, exercises, resources and a glossary. This book offers a potentially powerful approach to coaching. It is, in our view, requisite reading for anyone involved in, or considering, coaching. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great model for coaching, 20 Aug 2003

Barry Zweibel, CPCC, GottaGettaCoach! Incorpo... (Chicago, Illinois) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Co-active Coaching: New Skills for Coaching People Toward Success in Work and Life (Hardcover)

For ANYONE looking to understand the power of coaching and how it works, this is THE book to own. Co-active coaching provides a beautiful model that's broad enough to use with all of your coaching clients and deep enough to enable truly powerful coaching. The book is based on the cirriculum of The Coaches Training Institute coach training program, and even though I earned my CPCC (certified professional co-active coach)certification several years ago, I continue to dog-ear, underline, and highlight this book every time I take it from my bookcase. It gets better with each new read!

This review is from: Co-active Coaching: New Skills for Coaching People Toward Success in Work and Life (Hardcover)

I used this book to complement my in-person training with the Coach Training Institute. It's an invaluable reference tool, taking you through the key cornerstones, contexts, principles and skills of Coactive Coaching. I would highly recommend underlining, highlighting & scribbling on it as part of your continued professional development!
