Reseña del editor

Leaders are under enormous pressure to provide impressive results, deal with fast-changing markeplaces, and motivate an increasingly diverse workforce. At the same time, many organizations face scarcity of effective senior executives, voice concerns about their leaderships bench strength, and have seen their leaders derail at an alarming rate. An emerging practice arena, executive coaching is quickly becoming the service of choice for executives who have taken on challenging roles, have high potential, or are struggling to be successful. This book presents practical views of this field. Its 16 chapters consider key aspects of the craft: principles and guidelines for practioners, supporting complexity of mind in executives, dealing with failure in coaching, and a reflective practice approach for coaches. Experience coaches offer strategies for dealing with different client populations - executives in midlife, entrepreneurs and executives in multinational companies - while senior human resource managers describe how to get executive coaching started in organizations, link coaching with business strategy, integrate the use of internal and external coaches, and avoid common mistakes in using executive coaching.
