Coaching Presence
by Maria Iliffe-WoodOne of the hallmarks of maturity as a coach is awareness of how your values, beliefs, and other factors affect your coaching interventions. It takes skill to notice these influences which can manifest both physically and mentally during coaching, while simultaneously ensuring a client focused approach. Coaching Presence examines how self-awareness can be built across key aspects of coaching practice, introducing a model that will help you make a conscious and deliberate choice for every approach or intervention that you use with your client. It explores how, by paying close attention to the motivations behind every coaching choice, you can minimize the unconscious negative influences and bias to produce the best outcome for the client and their wider system. It will also help you recognize when conscious visibility expressed explicitly to the client may actually be the best coaching solution.

They act as Chief Problem Solvers and get far too involved in fixing their people's problems; then get frustrated about their salespeople's inability to improve. Coaching Salespeople into Sales Champions provides a proven coaching framework used by the world's leading sales organizations so that managers can confidently facilitative powerful, engaging coaching conversations that help you reach your business objectives - faster and win more sales today.

Good coaching taps into people's individuality and motivation, builds confidence & fosters deeper accountability.

Coaching Supervision: Advancing Practice, Changing Landscapes (Routledge EMCC Masters in Coaching and Mentoring)
by Jo Birch Peter WelchCoaching and mentoring supervision is a rapidly expanding field. This book is a curated collection of contemporary thinking; presenting cutting-edge contributions from international writers, leaders in the professional field, academics and practitioners who offer a range of accessible applied research, practice examples, case studies, guidelines and reflective prompts to readers. As in art galleries, some pieces require reflection – and return visits may be necessary. The work is edgy and new, and yet totally grounded in the coaching and mentoring supervisor experience, bringing pragmatic solutions to current complex challenges. Over the last decade coaching supervision has moved from a rare and privileged audience to being common place amongst ‘best practice’ coaches. This book harnesses the current surge in curiosity, knowledge and practice in coaching and mentoring supervision and provides a collective statement of our times. Each chapter, in its highly individual way, equips us to face the demands of the VUCA environment. In turn, the book resources coaching and mentoring supervisors to support their supervisees – coaches and mentors who work with leaders, grappling with global, community and personal challenges, in this uncertain, fast moving world. Supervision for mentors is developing alongside coaching supervision and at present there appears to be no obvious distinctions with little current research focussing on the mentoring supervision experience. However, its distinctive identity is still forming. We invite mentors, and mentor supervisors, as they read these works, to consider the emerging similarities and differences in addressing requirements for mentoring supervision. The book brings together pioneering research and practice and as such will remain current for many years. This book will be popular with experienced professionals who want to stretch and deepen their practice, keep up-to-date with current studies, challenge and catalyse their own thinking, and embrace learning from real-world practitioner examples and applied research.

She offers clear insights into how coaching works so that coaching is truly understood!′ - Bob Garvey, Professor of Business Education, York St John Business School ′The development of the coaching literature has often been protracted and modest.

Coaching Up! Inspiring Peak Performance When It Matters Most: Inspiring Peak Performance When It Matters Most
by Jordan FliegelConnect, engage, motivate, and inspire using top coaching techniques Coaching Up! is about inspiring those who matter to you to achieve peak performance. Whether you are a coach, a business leader, a civic activist, a teacher, a counselor, or a parent, this book will offer you a powerful, highly effective way to connect to the people you care about and move them forward toward their best selves. In sports, coaches have developed ways of connecting with their players quickly in the "heat of the battle," inspiring them to perform to their fullest potential and "leave it all on the field." Interestingly, although these techniques have not been codified, great coaches have independently developed remarkably similar models. This book aligns these techniques and distills their essence into a fundamental skill set that anyone can use to connect with, support, and inspire his or her colleagues, teammates, friends, and family members. At its foundation, great coaching is based on a solid set of techniques that can be applied to all areas of life. Essentially, those skills boil down to forging authentic connections, providing genuine support, and offering concise direction. While our everyday pressures may be less intense than those of a championship, the long-term game is even more important. Why not borrow from the best to develop the skills and abilities to win every day? Inspire and motivate people to higher performance Improve communication in high-stakes situations Be more effective both professionally and socially Getting inside the way great coaching works gives you an unparalleled glimpse at the core of inspiration. A great coach can make the difference between a mediocre player and a world champion. What would that difference look like if you could inspire every colleague in your business? Everyone who matters to you in your personal life? You can be the source of empowerment and motivation that helps the people around you reach higher, go further, and achieve more. Coaching Up! gives you the game plan—and shows you how to run the plays.

Coaching als Förderung kreativen Lernens
by Alexander V. SteckelbergIn der vorliegenden Untersuchung werden Zusammenhänge zwischen Lernen, Kreativität, Problemlösen und anderen adaptiven Prozessen geklärt und ein umfassendes Komponenten-Modell kreativen Lernens, das diese Phänomene in Einklang bringt, entwickelt. Darauf aufbauend wird die Komponenten-Theorie des Lernens im Coaching hergeleitet. Im Verlauf der Untersuchung wird nicht nur der Nachweis der prinzipiellen Möglichkeit kreativen Lernens im Coaching ohne direkte Wissensvermittlung und damit auch die Existenzberechtigung des Coachings als Profession erbracht, sondern gleichzeitig praktizierenden Coaches eine Hilfestellung zur Sicherung und Steigerung des Erfolgs ihres Coachings gegeben. Vielversprechend erscheinen die durch die vorliegende Untersuchung hergestellte Verbindung unterschiedlicher Fachdomänen sowie die Verknüpfung konstruktivistischer, prozessorientierter und systemtheoretischer Ansätze mit kognitivistischen und neuropsychologisch-orientierten Herangehensweisen.
