Advanced Leader Coaching: Accelerating Personal, Interpersonal and Business Growth

Advanced Leader Coaching: Accelerating Personal, Interpersonal and Business Growth

‘A fabulous book written by two highly experienced coaches (providing) a wealth of details to support the Executive Coach and individual leaders’. (Professor Jonathan Passmore – Director, Henley Business School Centre for Coaching)

About the book: Advanced Leader Coaching is the must have reference book and guide for all Executive and Leadership coaches. Advanced Leader Coaching provides leading-edge insights into the way in which professional or workplace-based coaches can optimize Executive and Leadership performance. Practical and easy to use, it provides coaches with an overarching ‘Advanced Leader Coaching Model’, focused upon accelerating three key leadership factors; personal, interpersonal and business growth. Within these three factors various critical subcomponents are explored; personal (self-awareness, mental toughness, capacity, style and transitioning), interpersonal (customer, employee, team and stakeholder) and business (strategy, operations, change and innovation).

Backed up with contemporary concepts, models, questions and case studies that coaches can use to raise Executive and Leadership performance, this book should provide real stimulus and confidence to coaching practitioners who work within this challenging domain.
