Outstanding!
This was a great read/listen. I would advise that you keep a journal or notepad handy while listening to get the most out of some of the action points that the author lists. Delivery style is not great but the content more than made up for it.

Worth listening to with a notepad over 6 sessions!
Well structured, good as a reminder even for more experienced coaches. Don't like the way he says 'processes' but that's just me! What he says about processes is worth a listen.
Some questions I wouldn't have thought of asking. They apply quite well to my client tomorrow.
Good with a notepad, but also while cycling or walking.

Generic advice that can fit on a two pager
Honestly i tried to like but in the end think it was pretty much a waste of time. The author seems to have credentials to really teach or present insights into the practice of executive coaching.
In the end though it feels like a list of hr activities a fortune 500 would put in their annual. The author introduces a seven step framework for coaching. He then presents each step and illustrates with some generic scientific quotes and example questions for the potential coach.
The big questions remains :so what. What now? All this content could in the introduction. Later the author coule illustrate specific examples. Here i believe the book would benefit the most. Build on the first hand experience of the author.provide detailed cases he faced and then use the framework to show the change.
At this point the written style is just far too corporate. It could be directly copied from a Mercer text. I miss a story, the person being coached and action leading to transformation.

Was not bad
I was expecting more from a covey publication. The book is great for beginners. but so general for anyone who have a any idea of coaching. I think of you are looking for a big picture sort of book. This is a useful tool
