4.0 out of 5 stars Simple and effective coaching approach, 24 Jul 2006
By Coert Visser "solutionfocusedchange.com" (Driebergen Netherlands) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This book presents a simple and effective approach for coaching: the solution-focused approach. Together with her husband and their team Insoo Kim Berg co-originated this approach many years ago. First, it developed within the field of psychotherapy. Now, it is spreading throughout institutions like schools, business organizations, and consultancy firms.

This coaching approach is highly goal-focused and respectful. The great thing is it often works very fast, hence the book title "brief coaching". After reading this book, every coaching will be able to understand the method and to start applying many of its principles. But becoming really good at it requires a lot of practise and discipline.

To my knowledge this is the first book in whicht the solution-focused principles are presented for an audience of coaches. I can't think of any two people more suited for delivering this message to that audience. Insoo is one of the people who invented this approach and Peter is an experienced coach. They succeeded quite well in writing an accessible and interesting book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential reading, 11 Dec 2007
This book is required reading for any coach. It is rare to come across such an elegantly written, wise and helpful book that presents with clarity what exactly effective coaches do and how they do it. In a field full of band-aid type fixes and ego-stroking hype it's refreshing to read a book that offers so much.

If you are interested in improving your coaching skills you need this.
