Great introduction to Solution-Focused Brief Coaching, Dec 7 2010
By Terni Paolo "Solution-Focused Brief Coach" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Coaching Plain And Simple (Paperback)
Antoine de Saint-Exupery, the author of "The Little Prince", once wrote: Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.According to that definition, this little book is perfection.
In 100-pages Peter Szabó, Daniel Meier and Kirsten Dierolf manage to distill the essence of Solution-Focused Brief Coaching.
The beginner coach will find in the book a useful framework for leading a successful coaching conversation:
- Reaching a Coaching Agreement
- Discovering a Preferred Future
- Finding Resources and Precursors of Solutions
- Defining Progress Clues
- Coming to a Session Conclusion
- Follow-up Sessions
The experienced coach will discover in the book the fascinating simplicity of the Solution-Focused approach, with a clear illustration of its key assumptions, jargon-free:
- Solution-Building is a Fast Track to Problem Solving
- Clients Already have Experience with the Solution
- When in Doubt, Trust the Client
- Not Knowing is Useful
together with some case studies that bring home the essence of Solution-Focused Coaching.
Do not be led astray by the simplicity of the book - it is built on years of coaching experience by the authors.
There is a difference between 100 pages that are all the authors can say on a topic, and 100 pages that are the essence of the 1,000 pages the authors could write on a subject. Clearly "Coaching Plain & Simple" belongs to the latter category. A small little gem.
