Reviews / Votes
"John is a gifted insightful communicator in his writing and his teaching, both of which I've had the pleasure to experience and witness. He artfully brings this seemingly mysterious yet hugely transformative field to life with eloquence, wisdom, real examples and practical tips. Prepare to be inspired!" * Liz Hall, editor of Coaching at Work and editor of Coaching in Times of Crisis and Transformation * "An insightful but practical stepping-stone for coaches wanting to embrace a systemic approach in their practice. I do not think it is possible to be truly effective as a coach without supporting the client to become more aware of the systems in which they belong." * David Clutterbuck, co-founder of the European Mentoring and Coaching Council (about a previous edition) * "His lucid explanations built on his depth of experience are in my view essential reading for coaches" * Alison Hardingham, Executive coach and author (about a previous edition) *More details
