Not Recommended
As other reviews have mentioned - this is a bit of an NLP shopping list, and despite the title, this is not a book about coaching with NLP, but a self-help book.
And there are better self-help books out there.
DON'T BE PUT OFF!
Others reviews of this book are a bit luke-warm, but don't let that put you off. This is really a self-help book which uses NLP techniques and written by two experienced and well-know practitioners and trainers. Perhaps the title of the book is slightly misleading. It is not a book about coaching, it is a book to help people self-coach themselves. It is easy to read and seems to make sense. Perhaps it is a touch long-winded, but it is definitely one of the best self-help books I've read in the past few years. At the Amazon price, it is great value.
Same ol' same ol'
If NLP could be summed up in the style of a shopping list this would be a great book.
This book serves no useful purpose, so far as I can see, other than as a rather mediocre "yet another introduction to NLP" with the word "coach" stuck on as an excuse for adding it to an already oversized list of bandwagoning texts.
If you aren't already familiar with NLP there are plenty of better books, such as "Introducing NLP" by O'Connor and Seymour.
If you aren't already familiar with coaching then, for all their drawbacks, almost any book on the subject will serve as a better introduction than this ("Effective Coaching", by Miles Downey. is FAR better. IMO).
So why would you buy this book? No reason, as far as I can tell.
