Dave Ellis, a master coach himself, offers coaches excellent, practical suggestions. I've studied life coaching for nearly 20 years and have been a practicing life coach for the past 10 years. I use the strategies in this book as the foundation for my successful coaching practice. If you are serious about helping others, don't miss the opportunity to read and use this book.

This review is from: Life Coaching: A Manual for Helping Professionals (Paperback)
I am studying to be a Life Coach. I found this book to be extremely clear and well-organized. It kept my attention throughout. In fact, once I started reading it I didn't want to put it down. I learned a lot from this book and am already practicing the techniques that it covers in my own coaching practice. I recommend this book to all helping professionals, even those who are experienced with Life Coaching. I also want to mention that I have written 12 books myself and am therefore a VERY discriminating reader. It says a lot that I have given this book such high accolades!
