In Performance Coaching, Dr Angus McLeod brings together the fundamentals of ALL the best practice in coaching and builds up from there. Unlike so many of the coaching books already on the market, this book is for coaches, not clients.

Dr Angus McLeod is a well-known and respected coach through his practice with individuals, teams and professional coaches. He is widely published in the United States and Europe on coaching and team development issues. Angus continues to influence the coaching profession through his on-line mentoring service ‘Ask Max’ and leadership of The Coaching Foundation, a not-for-profit organisation that offers career development opportunities to professional coaches. The Rapport Review by Jason Kemp Very useful handbook for coaches, managers & HR professionals I feel that this book is a very good resource for new and experienced coaches alike. It provides clear guidance about how to conduct a coaching session covering topics such as being ethical and creating a safe and confidential space for the coachee to be able to open up and explore solutions without hindrance from the coach. The book was easy to read and I particularly like the Linguistic Tips that are scattered throughout as these give further clarity on the topic being discussed in the book at the time. The scripted dialogues in the book are useful because by following the conversation, I felt that I could easily replicate the structure and understand what was going on within the conversation. I found that I could quickly understand what was going on during the interactions. There is a good section in the book relating to Meta-programs and personal preferences with a nice description of each one. I found this to be useful and I have used this book to help me to plan my NLP based coaching sessions. Being an NLP trainer, I found myself being reminded of the references to some of the first founders of NLP and also, the models that are included in the book was excellent for revision. For me, one of the biggest takeaways was the importance of listening to the coachee and paying close attention to the physiology that they are using because by doing this, you will be given a huge amount of information that you can use to help your client or coachee succeed. I recommend this book to all coaches from beginner to expert. Leave a review You must be logged in to leave a review. Login or register to leave a review
