Leading Through Coaching

Leading through Coaching, seeks to raise the profile of coaching and proposes strategies and tools for assisting managers and other leaders with drawing out and building upon the strengths of their teams. The book recommends a shift by leaders  to a 'nurturing and supporting' approach for fostering performance excellence.

Embracing a framework of 'Identifying Goals', 'Reviewing Progress', 'Stating Options', and 'Agreeing Action Plans' (IRSA), the 'IRSA' model highlights critical steps in the coaching process and recommends strategies and easy-to-use coaching tools. The book proposes a practical approach to developing and facilitating the leadership of individuals and ultimately that of the organisation.
