Business Coaching by Chris Farmer

How to Successfully Coach, Train, and Inspire Others

Business Coaching Book

If you were to discover that there was one verbal skill that would dramatically improve your ability to coach and counsel others more effectively, would you be willing to practice it until you were an expert?

That one vital skill is asking intelligent questions, which require a response in either thought or action. It is not good enough just to make a statement which is an assertion of what you think is true.

The book emphasises the point that, when coaching and counselling, you should ask more questions, and make fewer assertions. Questions can be used creatively to ask for agreement, gently challenge a belief, gain involvement, generate options and clarify thinking.

This is just one of a wide range of effective and creative ideas that the book covers. This book is available for £9.99 plus £2 post and packaging.

Customer Reviews

Here are a selection of reviews for our training courses.

  • The course content was excellent content, very apt and eye opening. The information provided will prove exceptionally useful, as it identified several areas where I can improve. The trainer's presentation was very good and kept the sessions interesting and the group entertained.

  • - Comprehensive suite of content with a great holistic flow and connection. - Plenty of unique aspects – not just ‘run of the mill’ tools. - Everything I learned will be applicable in the future of my business to myself and the people I work with. - The models were beneficial but seeing and practising application made it stick and made it relevant. - Every section had beneficial take home points. Chris (trainer) was a fantastic presenter, really knowledgeable and experienced. He allowed for tangential conversation were beneficial and made the content relevant to each of us. Good feature of splitting common points out into positive actions “we will / are” statements. Going through diagrams on the flipcharts was a good way to double digest the concepts. 100/100

  • Very good and informative course, with the right amount of time allocated. It provided useful insights and ideas to apply in my job and helped me analyse ways to move forward in various situations. Great presentation, effectively using visuals with flipcharts to facilitate conversations and ideas. It was helpful to have a detailed workbook to take away, as well as to add to during the two days.
