Coaching for Commitment: Interpersonal Strategies for Obtaining Superior Performance

Good book for managers with problematic employees, who need coaching.

Coaching for Effectiveness and Excellence

In Dr. Kinlaw's updating of his earlier version of this book, he has continued to write with licid organization and the effective format of key learning concepts/principles at the end of each chapter. In my opinion, one of his greatest contributions is that of taking a position, based on his experience, that coaches should develop scripts of the right things to say and the right format to follow to achieve to desired outcomes. His contrasting this with examples of the wrong things to say and do is didactically efficacious. I have purchased extra copies of this book for my two sons and have recommended it to many others.
