Achieving Excellence in your Coaching Practice: How to Run a Highly Successful Coaching Buisness (Essential Coaching Skills & Knowledge): Gladeana Mcmahon, Stephen Palmer, Christine Wilding
Review
Achieving Excellence in Your Coaching Practice is a first-rate addition to the series in Essential Coaching Skills and Knowledge by Routledge and delivers suitably against the stated objectives of being practical and highly accessible. The range and depth of subject area included reflects the diverse knowledge and experience of the three authors and I would certainly recommend this book to any aspiring coach seeking to establish and succeed with their own coaching practice. - International Journal of Evidence Based Coaching and Mentoring, April 2006
…an enjoyable, easy read and highly recommended for anyone thinking of going it alone. - The Psychologist
