Summary

The demand for coaching is growing exponentially driven by a recognition that learning models and practices are not responding to the increasing complexity that defines our times. This book responds to the demand from coaches who understand this complexity and the transformative value of building EI capacity within their clients. It provides with a relevant, human scale understanding of how to improve and apply the competencies of social and emotional effectiveness within the coaching setting and rests on a common sense approach of good coaching: integrity, appropriate risk-taking, self-discipline, mutual respect, cooperation and trust.
