This expert and wide-ranging work defines coaching while illuminating its difference to other personal and developmental business approaches. It charts the historical evolution of coaching as a profession and speculates upon its future development. This book will enhance your appreciation of what you offer as a coach, raise to mind the models and influences that shape your practice, while illuminating how you might develop yourself as a coach and develop your coaching as a business. As an interesting aside it will locate you and what you offer within the global community and business of coaching. The expanding market of the Middle East and Asian context of coaching is likewise appraised. Simply, this book is essential reading for practising coaches and progressive teachers of coaching alike.
