Editorial Reviews

"Top-down management is well on its way out (and good riddance!), and the best way to thrive as an organisation in the immediate and long-term future is to adopt a culture of coaching and mentoring. Learn how with this excellent resource!"

author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Trigger Marshall Goldsmith

"Many success stories are highlighted in these pages with hints of the challenges in building and sustaining a coaching and mentoring culture. This excellent book offers the reader helpful ways forward to a brighter coaching future"

Bob Garvey

"A hugely rich resource, containing a broad range of information, principles and approaches to the somewhat ethereal topic of how to weave coaching into the fabric of organisational culture. I particularly like its clear reading structure and format, enabling me to navigate quickly to the topics and issues I’m most interested in. Congratulations, another great addition!"
