Our newly published book, The Coaching Connection, shows managers how they can use Contextual Coaching to simultaneously promote both individual and organizational growth.  Authors Paul Gorrell, Ph.D., and John Hoover, Ph.D., describe how to achieve organizational results through the individual coaching process.

Readers will find a coaching methodology that takes into consideration factors such as strategy, organizational structure, corporate culture, and company-wide communication. The book includes a 360-degree assessment covering the ten most essential skill sets of well-balanced and effective leaders, as well as systems for measuring and managing talent. This is an essential guidebook for companies seeking to improve their people...and their bottom line results.

The book discusses a competency libray with developmental suggestions for over-, adequately- and under used behaviors.   A sample of this information can be read here.  For more information about the competency library described in the book, contact us.
