Executive Coaching

Coaching has captured the attention of top management, executives and professionals in all areas of the corporate world, as the need and desire for increased productivity and performance have never been stronger. This book provides mental health professionals with a map of the territory of the corporate world, and describes in detail the major theoretical coaching models and progressive phases. Dr. Sperry addresses both executive coaching - which focuses primarily on the issues of work performance, effectiveness and fulfillment - and personal coaching, which deals primarily with the development of high level psychological and physical health. Special strategies for optimizing executive performance, developing leadership skills, and promoting personal, relational, physical and spiritual wellbeing are also discussed in addition to the practical, ethical and legal aspects of beginning and maintaining an active coaching practice. Illustrative and compelling case examples and introductions to different aspects of corporate life, make this book uniquely suited to the mental health professional who may be unfamiliar with the subtleties of the business world.

First sentence: Coaching has taken center stage in the world of personal change and development.
