Product Description

People Management, 19 September 2004

Alison Hardingham is an impressive author who manages to produce an informative and useful book in a crowded market.

Product Description

Coaching is a tricky job; you could do with a coach yourself. In fact, you could do with four. Between them, the authors set out the skills and tools a successful coach needs. They start by showing the most important person in the relationship isn't them - it's the person being coached. It is their performance that matters. However, to get the best out of the people they are coaching, coaches need to be on top of their own game. This requires coaches to understand their own strengths and weaknesses and to develop certain skills and habits. Coaches also have to understand the differing ways and places where coaching can be offered. Hardingham and the team then set out the tools available to the coach, with solid practical, experience-based advice on how to use them. Whether you are an experienced coach or just starting out, a specialist consultant or a coaching manager, this book will help you become a better coach. Which will help the people you are coaching get better too.

There is so much lightweight froth written about coaching these days that my heart sank when I saw that this book was co-authored with three sports people. Fortunately this is a proper, serious, and useful book on coaching skills that just happens to have some interesting sports anecdotes thrown in (there's not so many that if you don't care about the Springboks or the 1982 Ashes series you can happily ignore them without too much effort).

Hardingham is a serious, but engagingly conversational writer and the book is essential reading if you are relatively new to coaching, and still very helpful for those of us who've been at it since "before it was trendy" as the cover says of Hardingham. Well worth it.
