Michael Neenan clearly and accessibly introduces the 30 Distinctive
Features of cognitive behavioural coaching (CBC), an approach which
applies the principles of CBT to coaching.
Cognitive Behavioural Coaching: Distinctive Features sets out the key
theoretical and practical features of CBT and discusses how they
integrate into the generic model of coaching. The book covers the four
key elements in developing a coaching relationship, provides
psychological and practical problem-solving models, shows how to deal
with stuck points in coaching and identifies which individuals are
unsuitable for CBC. As well as providing research evidence to support
the effectiveness of CBC, the book demonstrates the smooth transition of
CBT into CBC, and coach-coachee dialogues are interspersed throughout
the text to show CBC in action.
Cognitive Behavioural Coaching: Distinctive Features will be
particularly useful to CBT therapists interested in adding coaching to
their practice. It will also appeal to coaches in practice and in
training and other professionals in coaching roles seeking an effective
and straightforward coaching model.
