Coach Anyone about Anything

Book excerpt: Executive coaches Jed Niederer and Germaine Porché discuss how organizations also can benefit from having coaches and what you can contribute as a coach. Niederer and Porché provide kernels of wisdom and a variety of coaching tips amid a more than plentiful array of charts, graphs and models. They tell coaches how to help people and their organizations succeed by working with activities already in place "that drive high performance" and countering "those...that dampen it." Though the book could be better organized, it's well informed and good hearted. Organizations and coaches will find beneficial counsel here. getAbstract recommends this commonsense manual to coaches, consultants, their clients, and organizational leaders who plan to use coaches or consultants.
