5.0 out of 5 stars Coaching from the Manager's Perspective, 28 Oct 2006
We are all aware of that coaching is an integral activity in motivating staff to perform to their best potential. There are numerous books on this topic but I found Carole's approach fresh and different because it is written from the manager's perspective. She examines the practical implications for the manager who wants to develop his/her skill set and in particular how to dovetail it into the day to day conversations that take place with their staff.
There are a number of excellent frameworks that are introduced to us with an emphasis on how to structure conversations and the principles of solution focused thinking. I thought these were simple and pragmatic.
This book is clearly set out in chapters that take the reader through the frameworks step by step. Each chapter is full of techniques, case studies and examples that provide insights into the `how'. The summary bullet points serve as a useful reminder on the key aspects covered.
Certainly coaching as a key skill in any manager's toolbox and one that continually needs refreshing.

5.0 out of 5 stars An invaluable addition to any Manager's toolkit, 7 Nov 2006
Carole's book is a guided walk through the topic of coaching - from explaining why coaching is such a popular approach now, through understanding and evaluation your own coaching approach and skills, to carrying out coaching and seeing the process through to successful conclusion.
Carole approaches the whole topic of using coaching to raise both performance and motivation with a light but sure touch. The book is well written and easy to read, without it being in any way simplistic. The lay-out is very digestible - lots of white space, tables and bullet points - and each of the twelve chapters contain well-chosen case studies (which are highlighted in grey-scale for ease of reference), which illustrate her points. There is a wealth of exercises, suggestions and ideas. Each chapter ends with a useful summary and a list of references. You certainly get the impression that this book is meticulously researched.
What I like most about this book is the understanding and positioning of coaching as a skill that any manager would want, and be able to, develop. Carole skillfully blends theory with practice so that no manager would be daunted by the process and would immediately understand, grasp and be able to apply all the concepts.
I have immediately put this at the top of the "recommended book list" I use when I train others how to train. It is an invaluable addition to any managers' toolkit and I am extremely happy to recommend this book wholeheartedly
