Coaching with Colleagues - by Kenneth A Loparo (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

This is the first serious book about coaching deeply rooted in a long and varied therapeutical tradition that at the same time translates insights from that tradition into clear and crisp models for practical application in modern coaching practice. The book refers to well-known coaching approaches in business and devotes more attention than usual to internal coaching practices. It is a distinct, rigorous yet accessible guide to coaching approaches and practice.
