The 10th anniversary hardcover edition of the million-copy bestseller that has revolutionized coaching--with brand new content and original illustrations.

The Coaching Habit "un-weirded" coaching and made it practical and accessible to everyone. Ten years on, and that skill has never been more relevant.

It's not just for coaches. It's for managers, leaders, parents... in fact anyone who works and lives with other people. Being more coach-like and staying curious longer with those around you helps you connect more deeply, focus on what matters, and bring out each other's best.

Discover what more than a million readers have already learned about how to unlock peoples' potential by understanding the simple power of seven essential coaching questions. Its practical wisdom is grounded in neuroscience and behavioral economics research and enhanced with additional video support.

In this special hardcover edition:

  • A brand-new chapter on how to deepen the power of any coaching exchange by the way you show up. It teaches the four essential coaching paradoxes: be confident and humble, light and grounded, fierce and loving, and caring while not caring.
  • Two "secret chapters" on how to create your own coaching questions, so you can expand and deepen your own coaching repertoire.
  • Sprayed edges and delightful and ingenious illustrations which offer a fresh way to dive deeper into the lessons of the book and bring to life some of the more elusive insights.This book is practical and funny, clever, and easy to read. The Coaching Habit is essential for anyone looking to build their leadership skills, connect to the people who matter most, and bring out their best.
  • The Coaching Habit will help you master one of the most powerful human skills: staying curious just a little longer.
