Co-Active Coaching: New Skills for Coaching People Toward Success in Work and Life by Laura Whitworth, Karen Kimsey-House, Henry Kimsey-House, and Phillip Sandahl

With the first edition of Co-Active Coaching, Laura Whitworth and her pioneering coauthors set the stage for what has become a cultural and business phenomenon and helped launch the professional practice of coaching. Durable and flexible, their Co-Active Coaching model has stood the test of time as a transformative communication process that co-workers and teammates, direct reports and managers, teachers and students can use to build strong, collaborative relationships. Now, in this new edition, the authors bring current their original work to reflect today's reality: how coaching has moved beyond its initial focus on life skills to become an integral part of an organization's toolkit for developing leaders, working with teams, and building individual competencies essential for success. Includes a new CD containing sample audio coaching sessions and printable forms from the Toolkit. Learn more >>
