Leadership coaching is an emerging profession in the field of management and psychology. Leadership coaches provide coaching services to teams and individuals in the process of examining leadership practices, communication patterns, and effectiveness within various professional settings. Practical and clearly written, this book introduces an easy-to-implement, developmental leadership coaching model based on the authors' extensive work with thousands of managers, executives and MBA students. The authors explain how to become an effective coaching manager and offer detailed guidance through numerous practical exercises and examples. Some topics covered include coaching to promote on-going career development, coaching employees with performance problems, and coaching in situations that are mediated by distance technologies: telephone, e-mail, web-based opportunities and teleconferencing.
