Coaching for Commitment (C4C™) has something to offer to everyone.  The manager who is looking to foster independence and innovation, the executive who wants to hone strategic and interpersonal skills, the teacher who is trying to communicate differently with students and team members, the employee who is stuck in a rut and is looking for growth and opportunity, the parent who is looking for a new and creative way to interact with their kids, or the coaching professional who is looking for a new way of re-energizing his or her coaching.  This book is for the new and the novice coach, as well as for the seasoned and savvy...

C4C includes the most current coaching strategies and methodologies and provides information on the latest definitions of what coaching is and ways to succeed at coaching.  The authors take Kinlaw’s original concept of tying coaching and commitment one step further and make commitment to action part of a new coaching model.  Coaching for Commitment offers a practical, how-to guide to coaching for anyone (no matter what their skill level) who wants to hone their coaching skills for a range of circumstances and using a variety of methods--face-to-face, with a virtual team, on the fly, by phone, or e-mail…

Coaching for Commitment does something that no other program has done before; it provides precise definitions of coaching and other roles by introducing the Role Model and the WHAT and HOW method.  Coaching for Commitment makes it easy to differentiate when you are managing, mentoring, instructing and coaching.  Coaching for Commitment will teach you how to identify when coaching is the optimum role to play and how to become a skillful (or more skillful) coach…

Never before has there been a program that so clearly distinguishes coaching as a singular role or a tool (CSI) that allows people to assess which role they gravitate toward (mentor, manager, instructor, coach) while measuring the “coaching gap” between performing other roles and being in the coach role.  This program is unique in that it encourages participants to look at coaching in its purest form.

Coaching for Commitment will Revolutionize the way you Think about Coaching!
