The definitive edition - updated and expanded, with access to an online toolkit.

'The bible of coaching guides...No other book gives you the tools, skills, and the fundamentals needed to succeed in these delicate relationships.' Stephen R. Covey, Author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

Co-Active Coaching offers current and aspiring coaches, leaders and managers in organisations and anyone wanting to strengthen interpersonal relationships, a practical, yet transformative communication process called the Co-Active Model. Since its creation by the authors more than 25 years ago, the Co-Active Model and the book have formed the foundation of the authors' six-part coach training program delivered globally to tens of thousands of individuals each year through the authors' training institute, CTI.

With its origins in the coaching profession, the Co-Active Model also applies to work and interpersonal relationships because it is based on principles of effective communication backed by current scientific research. In this highly-anticipated new edition, the universal applicability of the the Co-Active Model is emphasised. It goes beyond the one-on-one coach/coachee structure to include guidance for leaders and managers on how they can add a coaching competency to their professional skill set.

New to this edition:

· Every chapter has been updated for relevance and direct application to coaching in all of its forms, including in the workplace
· New material covering: current neuroscience research, Co-Active approaches to leadership development and working with groups and teams
· More examples drawn from the authors' first-hand experiences, especially in workplace settings
· More examples of the Co-Active Model applied internationally
· Web-based 'Toolkit' with 27 exercises, questionnaires, checklists, and reproducible forms

Great resource!

So much great instruction, insight, and direction. I will use this book again and again in my practice!

Great coaching book

One of the must reads for people learning about coaching. Highly recommended. I supplemented hard copy with this audiobook to get most of it

possible new career

the chapters that are listed in Audible do not line up with the book chapters... they are in the proper order and such but chapter 12 on the audible list may be really chapter 10 in the book itself. definitely easier to listen and follow along in book vs just one or the other.

Excellent book for anyone interested in coaching.

This book was a great introduction into the world of coaching. I only wish there were more sample coaching sessions. It’s great for any level of coaching or if you need a review.

Lots of information

There is a tremendous amount of information in this book for the reader to absorb and apply. This can be done by listening to this book all day, but the only way to get any benefit out of it is to do the work. Or you can follow what a college professor told me to do when reading a book. Read the book from cover to cover then wait a week and read it again, then in three, six and 12 months. If you do this you will get the most out of a book or whatever you are working on learning.

Personally the only way I’ve found is to jump and try. I have been working with this since Colette Baron-Reid suggested this book in her coaching course. It's not easy and it will cause you to change as a person. As you change by applying what's in the book to yourself you’ll change the lives of many others. As the book says this isn’t easy, but it’s a choice to keep working on it (paraphrased).
