The Coaching Bible is a practical and inspiring new book from Ian McDermott and Wendy Jago. It details what coaching really is - and is not. Packed with examples it is brief yet comprehensive. It describes the key processes that make coaching unique and is written for anyone interested in making the most of what coaching has to offer - coaches, commissioners of coaching, anyone thinking about hiring a coach for themselves and people who just want to know how to adopt a coaching approach.
It is beautifully written in a lively, plain-speaking style with handy examples to illustrate the authors’ often complex ideas. The layout makes it a pleasure to read.

I am delighted and impressed by this comprehensive, and yet clearly accessible book on coaching. It addresses the essentials in coaching, that do not change. At the same time it allows space for the evolution of the coaching process. Ian and Wendy have done a masterful job in identifying the core elements of this growing profession while at the same time addressing the heart and soul of coaching. It is a much needed addition to my library. Thank you!
