'Self-coaching Leadership - Simple Solutions from Manager to Leader' (John Wiley & Sons and Jossey-Bass)...
This new book was launched with many reviews from leading people including Judith DELOZIER, Will THOMAS, Richard DENNY, Myles DOWNEY, David MEGGINSON, Robert DILTS and others.
"Angus McLeod has produced a Master Companion for every executive. Leadership can be learned and this book is a highly effective and easy way to learn it" Richard Denny, CEO, The Richard Denny Group

'Leadership is about influencing people to make big things happen. Management is a process of organizing people to get things done. They are different skills, but equally critical to success in today's workplace.

'Self-coaching Leadership redefines and demystifies the journey to leadership. Angus McLeod's no-nonsense thinking, straightforward approach and practical tools enable readers to easily identify when a leader is needed - and coach themselves towards improved influence, performance and effectiveness'

"a unique and welcome addition to the leading edge literature on leadership" Robert Dilts

Available at all leading bookshops and Amazon and under the Jossey-Bass imprint in the US.

'Performance Coaching - The Handbook for Managers, HR Professionals and Coaches' (reviewed below by Janette Eason)

By: Angus McLeod, PhD

ISBN: 190442405-8
Publisher: Crown House Publishing Ltd
RRP: £18.99

This book draws together the best of all the existing models on coaching. At first this made me feel that the format of the book was going to be as dry as dust and perhaps more suited to those studying HR or Performance Coaching professionally.

For the serious HR professional it is a book that is easily read in the normal sense from cover to cover, but I feel it works especially well as an excellent reference manual for the seasoned manager or team leader, to dip into whenever the need arises.

Each section is clearly set out with a good outline of each individual situation, the desired outcome and useful hints to 'next steps'.

Coaching Solutions and Coaching Solutions Workbook, both by Will Thomas
These focus on education and together offer the educator a great and practical resource. Indeed, a resource that can be put into practice immediately. Will is a genius in putting advanced thinking into practical can-do tools for all educators - highly recommended!
