And Curly Martin's Life Coaching Handbook, is unusually, specifically for life coaches - even though it is a little dated. Dr Marcia Reynold's book Coach the Person, Not the Problem is for coaches (and also contains sage advice for leaders who are coaching their staff). Marion Franklin's book - The Heart of Laser-Focused Coaching is for coaches specifically. But this does mean it can be hard to find good books written for coaches.Įven Co-Active Coaching has, in its last 2 editions, gone over to a leadership focus. As coaches, we all know this to be true, and it's great that organizations are finally catching on. The idea of course is that coaching can also be a management or leadership style - and this helps organizations get the most out of their people.

It's interesting to note that (especially lately), most books about coaching seem to be written with leaders in mind - and coaches second.
