Summary:

"Individual coaching for the professional development of leaders has become a well-established key component of overall leader development in organizations worldwide. This significant and continuously increasing demand for coaching over the past 30 years has drawn thousands of people from a variety of backgrounds to this field, and the field itself has morphed and changed as a result. This book is intended as a foundational guide for those with advanced training in psychology who wants to learn about coaching in organizational contexts and possibly begins the process of adding this practice area to their professional activities. It helps the reader to decide whether--and how--to prepare to become a coaching psychologist (CP). It also is helpful to all others who do executive and leader coaching. CPs help individuals learn, grow, excel, and realize their potential in the contexts in which they work. Coaching is a helping professional activity; CPs help individuals learn and grow by facilitating learning, discovery, breakthrough insights, and skill-building and by identifying their sources of personal and professional excellence in organizational roles. Psychologists and psychology graduate students have much to offer the practice of leader coaching. Regardless of which area of psychology one's advanced degree is (or will be) in, no one emerges from graduate school or other practice areas of psychology fully prepared to coach leaders."--Preface.
