Product Description

From the Inside Flap
When his groundbreaking book, Masterful Coaching, was first published in 1995, Robert Hargrove presented his profound insights into the journey to becoming a masterful coach. Says Hargrove, Masterful Coaching is about standing to people′s greatness and engaging them in creating and extraordinary future for themselves and their organization. The focus is on producing business breakthroughs, and as a byproduct of that leadership breakthroughs. It takes place in the domain of accomplishment not therapy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Coaching + Systems Thinking = Transformation!, 23 Dec 2005
The author integrates coaching with systems thinking and the learning organization popularized by Peter Senge's book "The Fifth Discipline". This revised edition shows the Hargrove's approach is still fresh and surprisingly unique, given all the recent books published on coaching.

One unique contribution is Hargrove's model of triple-loop learning. It is a model of reflection. The first loop is reflecting on the outcome of actions for incremental improvement. The second loop is reflecting on assumptions that led to the decisions about those actions. The third loop is self-reflection on the core identity of the decision maker. This acknowledges that who we are influences our assumptions about the world and thus our actions. This type of reflection has become the core of quality coaching.

Other particularly helpful sections are the chapters on stretch goals and breakthrough thinking. Pushing for breakthroughs, rather than incremental change, requires the use of stretch goals. Hargrove tells us how to coach through the process of setting stretch goals. He says you first must decide what would be a breakthrough, then dig inside for motivation by examining why it is important to achieve and what's in it for me? Finally, learning and acting differently is essential to reaching stretch goals.

Hargrove's combination of systems thinking and learning organization principles with coaching is a real winner. Other books might be more thorough on the "how to" of coaching but his theory and tools for transformational change are excellent and unique.
