I was pleased when this book came up as a choice for me on Amazon Vine as not only am I interested in coaching but I’m taking part in some training relating to it at work.

The book is well-ordered in three parts. Part One is called orientation and describes the key issues in coaching as well as an explanation of the STEPPPA Model. This model is the focus of the book and is built around Subject focus, Target focus, Emotional focus, Perception focus, Plan focus, Pace and Act focus. Part Two looks at coaching tools; this includes the foundations of coaching and a detailed analysis of STEPPPA. Part Three is about further coaching resources and closing thoughts.
