The Coaching Book

74/100
👍 Worth It
Soames draws on genuine commercial and EQ expertise to deliver a practical, well-structured coaching primer that slots naturally into a business professional's development reading. The concise format is both its appeal and its limit — seasoned coaches will want more depth — but for managers building a coaching mindset it hits the brief cleanly, and its spot in a proven LID series adds confidence.
