Coaching as a practical management habit

Max Landsberg organizes workplace coaching around a set of specific techniques, presented chapter by chapter as “Golden Rules.” The approach links everyday conversations and delegation with broader aims: developing colleagues, building effective teams, and improving results. Coaching is also framed as a two-way practice, with benefits for the manager’s own interpersonal skills and development. The book’s emphasis is on a small toolkit that managers and leaders can practise over time, rather than coaching as a specialized activity separate from ordinary work.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Managers and leaders seeking practical approaches to coaching at work
  • Readers interested in delegation, team development, and workplace communication
  • Those exploring coaching as a tool for personal as well as professional development

Book overview

The essence and success of The Tao of Coaching has always been its focus on the practical tips and techniques for making work more rewarding through the habit of coaching - and this philosophy continues to underpin this brand new reissue.

The book's premise is simple: that to become an effective coach, managers and leaders need master only a few techniques, even though mastery obviously requires practice. Each chapter focuses on a specific technique - or Golden Rule - of coaching to help practice make perfect.
Tried and tested by generations within and beyond the workplace, this succinct and engaging book gives readers the tools to:

- create more time for themselves, by delegating well
- build, and enjoy working with, effective teams
- achieve better results
- enhance their interpersonal skills.

It demonstrates that coaching is not simply a matter of helping others and improving performance, but is also a powerful force for self-development and personal fulfilment.
