Description

The first reference to bring scientifically proven approaches to the practice of personal and executive coaching

The Evidence Based Coaching Handbook applies recent behavioural science research to executive and personal coaching, incorporating multiple disciplines to explain why and how coaching works. This groundbreaking resource for the burgeoning coaching profession presents several different coaching approaches along with the empirical and theoretical knowledge base supporting each.

Recognising the special character of coaching—as a non-medical, collaborative, and highly contextual process—the authors lay out an evidence-based coaching model. This model allows practitioners to integrate their own expertise and the needs of their individual clients with the best current knowledge. It enables coaches to better understand and optimise their own coaching interventions without having to conform to a single, rigid practice standard.

The Evidence Based Coaching Handbook explores various approaches and applies each to the same two case studies, illustrating through this practical comparison the methods, assumptions, and concepts at work in different approaches.

The coverage includes:

An overview: a contextual model of coaching approaches
Systems and complexity theory
The behavioural perspective
The humanistic perspective
Cognitive coaching
Adult development theory
An integrative, goal-focused approach
Psychoanalytically informed coaching
Positive psychology
An adult learning approach
An adventure-based framework
Culture and coaching
