Finance ✦ Penny’s Take
The Coaching Manager
James M Hunt · 2002
79/100
👍 Worth It
Hunt and Weintraub fill a genuine gap by centering coaching as an everyday management practice rather than a crisis intervention, and the 20 real-world cases make the model concrete rather than abstract. Self-assessment tools let readers calibrate against their own situations, which is more useful than most business books allow. The academic co-author framing adds some density, but multiple editions confirm readers keep coming back.
