This book thoroughly explains a kind of coaching that uses collaboration between coach and client to activate the client's natural creativity and abilities towards solving the client's problems. The world would work infinitely better if everyone read this book and followed the Co-Active model for being in relationship with others. There is so much to be learned in here about really effective communication, meaningful conversation and transformational relationships, at home or at work, it really should be required reading starting in junior high/middle school. I also think this book is extremely valuable for non-coaches. Since reading it, I've been through CTI's coach training and certification program so I can confidently say that the book is an excellent basis for understanding a tried-and-true method for coaching, but nothing replaces the in-person training and, of course, many hours of coaching! The book itself is easy and enjoyable to read and does a good job explaining this approach to coaching. It's the only coaching school in partnership with the Institute of Coaching at Harvard Medical School and the only one you can get real college credit for (if desired) because it's so rigorous. CTI's school and Co-Active model of coaching are considered the gold standard in the industry. Many other coaching schools use this book as their textbook too. This is the definitive textbook on life coaching written by the pioneers in the field who have run their own coaching school for over 20 years called The Coaches Training Institute (CTI). The only book life coaches, business coaches and health coaches will ever need to build stronger relationships and healthier communication. Full of thoughtful exercises, relevant examples and concrete advice, this text is clear, direct, easy to read, and inspiring. The power-packed on-line Coach's Toolkit has been expanded to include more than 35 exercises, questionnaires, checklists to make these proven principles and techniques accessible and practical. It provides the latest terminology and a variety of fresh coaching examples drawn from the authors' first-hand experiences with thousands of international coaching trainees and clients. The book reflects today's reality of how coaching has moved beyond its initial focus on life skills to become an integral aspect of successful leadership development. In this highly anticipated new edition, the authors capture their broader experience in applying the Co-Active approach to leadership and human development. The flexible Co-Active Coaching model showcased in the book has stood the test of time as a transformative communication process that co-workers and teammates, managers, teachers, and students can use to build strong and collaborative relationships. This extensively revised 4th edition of Co-Active Coaching now offers leaders, managers and other business professionals practical guidance for embracing coaching as a core competency to drive greater workplace engagement.
