Neuroscience for Coaches: How coaches and managers can use the latest insights to benefit clients and teams
Many coaching tools and techniques are now well established, but how do they actually work? The third edition of Neuroscience for Coaches answers this question to help coaches and managers deliver greater value to clients and employees.
Based on extensive research, Neuroscience for Coaches provides a clear explanation of the aspects of neuroscience that are relevant to coaching so coaches can describe to clients why particular techniques work and the benefits to be gained from using them. It also features interviews with Marshall Goldsmith, Susan Grandfield, Christian van Nieuwerburgh and Kim Morgan on topics including mindfulness and behaviour change in coaching.
This fully updated third edition covers the latest neuroscientific research on key brain areas and their functions, such as the Prefrontal cortex and Amygdala which affect attention, processing and emotional regulation. With tips and insights throughout, it crucially demonstrates the ways in which coaches and managers who coach can use this information effectively and practically in their everyday work. Neuroscience for Coaches is a vital resource for improving coaching practice with the latest scientific developments, tools and techniques.

Wow! So much fascinating information with this edition updated to reflect the evolution in neuroscientific thinking.
There are certainly lots of things to consider during and after reading this book. Took me a while as I meandered off topic following interesting threads discussed in the text.
I really like the set up of this book as it truly does reflect the aim that it is for coaches.
A topic is introduced, explained, then the text considers why it is important for coaches/managers, the neuroscience behind it, and how this knowledge may be applied. There are so many links and references to be followed and information about studies that may be relevant.
I've read it, but feel it will be often referenced.

This has interesting and helpful info for coaches and others interested in how the brain works and how one can use it to help others (as well as oneself). I was happy to find this, particularly since it's been around in earlier editions for a while. Good stuff.
Thanks very much for the free review copy for review!

This book is written in a very clear way and, as far as theory is concerned, it provides a lot of suggestions to deepen the functioning of our brain and how chemistry correlates in a more or less direct way with our choices and our behavior. As for the practice, there are hints, but clearly here the matter is way more complicated, but at least the authors have tried.
Questo libro é scritto in modo molto chiaro e, per quanto riguarda la teoria, fornisce moltissimo suggerimenti per approfondire il funzionamento del nostro cervello e come la chimica si correli in modo piú o meno diretto con le nostre scelte ed i nostri comportamenti. Per quanto riguarda la pratica, ci sono spunti, ma chiaramente qui la questione si complica, ma almeno gli autori ci hanno provato.
I received from the Publisher a complimentary digital advanced review copy of the book in exchange for a honest review.
