Emerging Conversations in Coaching and Coaching Psychology

Reviews / Votes

"Emerging Conversations in Coaching and Coaching Psychology is an unusual book amongst various edited volumes. It opens conversations on a whole range of debates: those that are already well attended, those that are so controversial that very few want to participate in and those that are fairly new but a welcome addition to both academic and practitioner domains of knowledge. What unites these contributions is the rigour of the approach and intention to raise the quality of debates to the level they deserve. An important read for serious stakeholders of the coaching profession." - Professor Tatiana Bachkirova, Director of the International Centre for Coaching and Mentoring Studies, Oxford Brookes University, UK

"Coaching is reaching a point of maturity as a craft, a field of research and an industry. Emerging Conversations in Coaching and Coaching Psychology is an excellent navigational aid in plotting the path ahead. With a breadth of expertise and insight across a range of increasingly relevant chapter topics, this recommended text repeatedly encourages us to challenge and re-examine coaching orthodoxies and will doubtless serve to enrich our individual and collective practice." - Dr David Tee, PhD, Wales Coaching Centre, University of South Wales, UK

"Great conversations leave me energised and inspired, tingling with new ideas and possibilities for enriching my experience of being alive and sharing those possibilities with others. This book reads like an opportunity to dip into a range of great conversations supported and informed by a growing body of evidence and experience that can expand and enrich our coaching philosophy and practice and enable us to demonstrate the valuable contribution that psychologically informed coaching can make in an uncertain world." - Alison Clarke, Chair Practice Board, British Psychological Society
