Jessica Stone: Executive Coaching, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Navigate the dynamic landscape of executive coaching with insights from leading practitioners

Executive coaching lacks unified guidance, leaving coaches trying to understand disparate methodologies and evolving practices alone. Executive Coaching: Perspectives and Practices Across the Field solves this problem by gathering a collection of experienced coaches using varied approaches and offering their perspectives on 20 foundational questions. Editor Jessica Stone, a psychologist with 30+ years of experience, creates a comprehensive resource reflecting the field's rich diversity.

Each chapter explores one question through 13 coaches' responses, covering chemistry calls, contracting, foundational approaches, credentialing, cultural humility, ethics, digital tools, resilience, leadership, imposter syndrome, and ROI. The book distinguishes coaching from mentoring, addresses psychological boundaries, examines life impacts beyond work, and explores the profession's future with theoretical frameworks and real-world applications.

Readers will also find:

• Multiple perspectives on each question that reveal commonalities and distinct approaches across the coaching profession
• Practical guidance on establishing rapport, setting expectations, and navigating the contracting process with clients
• Strategies for building self-awareness as a coach and helping clients leverage self-awareness for growth
• Insights on integrating digital tools while addressing diversity, equity, and inclusion in coaching practice
• Synthesis sections that highlight key themes and differences, helping readers understand core insights while appreciating nuanced perspectives

Executive Coaching: Perspectives and Practices Across the Field serves executive coaches, leadership development professionals, organizational consultants, and graduate students. By showcasing diverse thought in coaching practice, this book provides an educational tool for aspiring coaches and a detailed reference guide for experienced practitioners.
