An excellent resource for setting goals and building action plans

Here are some quotes from students in the coaching certificate programs at New York University, where this book has been a required text book for some years. 'It's really helpful to be able to read about complete coaching engagements with different clients.' 'I use it regularly as a resource and know that many others in my classes do as well.' 'I have so many pages marked out the book is a mass of tags, especially the sections that give you example goals and actions for different coaching situations'. 'It's an excellent resource that helped me picture what goes on in real coaching sessions'. 'I really started to understand what coaching was about after reading this book, it brought it all together'. (From the Author): Personal Best is designed as an introductory book to simplify the complex issues in coaching, and give the new coach a good understanding of what is involved in coaching, from a birds-eye view. To the academics who think it is too simple, I expect that more people have got value from this book because it is simple not in spite of it.

Strongly disagree with the 1st two reviewers

[...] I have skimmed this book. It is NOT sophisticated or advanced. It is, however, an easy yet comprehensive read. It presents basic concepts, facts and helps. If you've read other, similar or more advanced books, then it is undoubtedly covering old ground and is not for you. But if you are looking for basic guidance then this book is an excellent beginning source and guide.
