Summary: Feeds the Intellect and Warms the Heart
Comment: Patrick Williams and Diane Menendez succeeded in creating a masterful volume - Becoming a Professional Life Coach - that surpasses in its depth and scope any other coaching book that I have read to date.
Beginning with an in depth history of development of coaching and its evolution from therapy, it continues highlighting use of theories of human development i.e. Moslow, Robert Kegan, and Ken Wilbur.
The authors introduce the reader to fundamental concepts and skills of coaching to the most advanced concepts of human potential, the importance of interplay of body, human emotions and perception, values, life purpose
and, importantly, to the healing powers of love.
Every coach, regardless of specialty, will be enriched each time the book is referenced.
