Have you got a definitive guide to collaborative coaching?
02 Dec 04

“Successful coaching is about helping others to help themselves and knowing that when the coaching intervention is complete, the change will persist and become a permanent shift.“
- Mick Cope

Coaching is a booming industry and a much-desired skill for managers, but it is becoming clear that the traditional methods have shortfalls, and the old models are looking tired. The vast majority of coaching books are founded upon the GROW model, which is now exhausted and its flaws are beginning to show.

The Seven Cs of Coaching: The definitive guide to collaborative coaching, just published by Prentice Hall Business, offers a brand new and highly original model, Collaborative Coaching (CC), which delivers coaching for sustainable change. In other words it lasts, there is an end point for the coach and the client is involved in their own coaching process.

Mick’s clients are already confirmed advocates of CC. Feedback from General Electric confirms that his model is: "An easy to remember framework which produces results". The BBC training and development department were also impressed commenting that: "The tools and concepts learned have had a fast, very real impact.”

Packaging and presenting a complex process in a way that helps the coach deliver value through sustainable change, The Seven Cs of Coaching offers a collaborative framework that will help ensure old patterns of behaviour are broken, and new ones are formed – and maintained.
