Edition: Paperback; 2002-07
Summary:
More and more leaders and their organizations are becoming convinced
in the business case for creating a "coaching culture". This book
provides the tools for leaders and teams to develop a common language
and shared protocol and a learning and development orientation
towards people. These critical dynamics support the entire culture
becoming a "feedback-rich, high-performance" organization. For this
to occur, a common coaching approach driven by coaching UP, DOWN, and
SIDEWAYS is necessary. Coaching flows in all directions to managers,
peers, and direct reports. Coaching becomes the normal "way we do
things around here." The premise of "The Heart of Coaching" was never
more true. "As coaching becomes a predominant cultural practice...it
will create a performance-focused, feedback-rich organization capable
of creating and sustaining a competitive advantage." This "Second
Edition" makes the use of the enhanced coaching model easier to use
than ever, since it now includes a colorized snapout reference card.
Additionally, several powerful enhancements of the Transformational
Coaching methodology make it one of the most comprehensive, and
systematic approaches to coaching you will find today. It guides
leaders, managers, and entire teams who want to enhance or master
their coaching skills through 2 critical aspects of coaching: 1.
establishing authentic, healthy and respectful coaching
relationships, and 2. organizing and conducting the actual coaching
conversations that lead to commitments for positive results that both
the coach and the coachee are willing to support.
