How Coaching Works: The Essential Guide to the History and Practice of Effective Coaching

This book draws together the themes and principles of coaching, revealing the ideas that work at the root of all successful coaching techniques. It is a must-have for practicing coaches, students, and anyone interested in this increasingly popular subject.

Coaching is very big business. Over the last decade it has become one of the most popular approaches to personal and business development. However, coaching books tend to focus on just one method, and just one of five main areas: executive coaching (for senior business people), business coaching (for companies to improve results), life coaching (for people who want a better sense of fulfillment and well-being), sports coaching (for individual athletes), and team coaching (for teams in sport or business).

Pragmatic and informative, How Coaching Works is the first book to explain the key concepts that underpin all of these different areas. It also explores how different ideas have blended to give rise to what we know as coaching today, and singles out what works.

The book is written by two of the world's leading experts in this field. Joseph O’Connor and Andrea Lages are co-founders of the International Coaching Community, a community of over one thousand coaches from thirty-one countries. They are experienced coaches and have worked in life, business, and executive coaching. O'Connor is a leading consultant on coaching, training, and neuro-linguistic programming (NLP). He has published twelve best-selling titles, including Introducing NLP and Coaching with NLP. His work has been translated into eighteen languages.
