Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:


Are the people who report to you giving you their best? Is each individual on your team performing to his or her fullest potential?




For more than thirty years, renowned business consultant and bestselling author Ken Blanchard and legendary NFL coach Don Shula have motivated teams to peak performances. In their classic, authoritative work on coaching, Everyone's a Coach, they distilled their rich collective experience down to its key elements and shared their secrets for inspiring others to greatness.



Now, by popular demand, Blanchard and Shula have created The Little Book of Coaching, capturing the essence of their classic in this indispensable motivational gem--a gift to their readers and fans.



At the heart of this book is a simple acronym that describes the qualities of an effective leader:



Conviction-driven--Never compromise your beliefs



Overlearning--Practice until it's perfect



Audible-ready--Know when to change



Consistency--Respond predictably to performance



Honesty-based--Walk your talk




Using a highly effective 'tag-team' approach, Blanchard and Shula impart the five leadership secrets behind this acronym. Shula tells you how each coaching concept worked on the field, and then Blanchard explains how you can apply each strategy in a leadership situation.



Instructive and inspirational, The Little Book of Coaching is the essential handbook that will teach you how to unleash excellence in anyone.

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - The Best Management Book I've Read
Don't let the size of this book deter you. In fact, the small size and large print make this book a joy to read. The principles expounded here are a blueprint for success. I've had the pleasure of working for several fantastic managers and I can tell you that they used the methods described here. I have applied the principles myself as a manager in a maintenance organization. If you want to bring about a culture change in your group, read this book and apply the principles. It is an easy approach, and it works!



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - One of the Best Books I've Read
One of my interests is why some people succeed and why others don't. Two sports teams have equally talented players. One team goes to the championship while the other team struggles in the playoffs, if they make the playoffs! Why?

"The Little Book of Coaching" outlines a simple process that will help anyone do better. I follow these steps and have taught these steps in classes. The five simple "COACH" steps are:
* Conviction-Driven - Never compromise your beliefs
* Overlearning - Practice until it's perfect
* Audible-Ready - Know when to change
* Consistency - Respond predictably to performance
* Honesty-Based - Walk your talk

These steps are simple to learn. Implement them and you will see a positive change in your life.



Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Very brief
It's a very brief book, small size, big print, quotations taking whole pages. While it covers some good ideas, it lacks meat. It can serve as a refresher, but definitely not a comprehensive coaching sourcebook.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Four Stars
I bought this book for a college class. Excellent ideas on how to coach or lead in a business.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Double Benefits
Life, no matter personal or bisiness, is so much like the game (such as NFL).

How to make yourself stay competitive and strong is as important as how to motivate people surrounded you to spearhead to victory.

Business guru Kenneth Blanchard and NFL coach Don Shula share with us their perspectives on coaching and leadership with different methods but same objective. So you can have a better view of how to improve your own coaching skill.

One book, one price for two professional and treasurable insights. It's obviously a best buy!
