As an NLP trainer many of my delegates are interested in persuing a career in business coaching. This is my top recommended book for those interested in coaching senior people in large companies. It consists of short contributions from top coaches from around the world. Great stories, models that can be adapted and used, and lots of ideas of how to successfully position coaching. Highly recommended.

A well written flowing book with so much interesting and stimulating material.
This book is not only for HR or Talent management it is for CEOs who want not only to develop themselves but to create a great team and Company to work for.
For business coaches this book can be read over and over again as it is not only informative but also motivating.
It is difficult to find so much experience and above all priceless advice in one book.
As always,M.Goldsmith never fails to deliver.
