Germaine and Jed lay out detailed time management and motivation strategies for anyone looking to accomplish anything at all. Entry-level workers, managers, entrepreneurs, students, and parents can glean a wealth of practical information about tackling to-do lists, empowering people, prioritizing pressures, becoming a better team player, and leading others to work together. Germaine and Jed steer clear of trite advice and cliches; instead, they share personal stories, useful diagrams, and witty illustrations to convey their wisdom. Readers can put down the book feeling encouraged and equipped to conquer procrastination. I strongly recommend this book to people of all ages looking to regain a new outlook on defining and reaching goals.
My expectations for volume 2 have been exceeded! I first turned to chapter 14, "Make Planning Fun & Effective". There I found nuggets that I have begun using with my coaching clients. The Panoramic Card Game is just one of the many innovative and effective coaching tools in this book.-John Gordon Business & Personal Coach Kansas City, MO
Jed and Germaine do an excellent job at creating a coaching tool that is useful for ALL - whether you are new to the coaching field or are an experienced coaching professional!! The information can be immediately applied to real life situations to get you focused back on effective coaching. Must read for anyone interested in continuing their growth in coaching - or to be coached!
Use coaching to significantly leverage knowledge and build a more effective team! Jed and Germaine approach coaching concepts in a straightforward way with good examples for ease of application. I have been with Purdue University for over 30 years. Coaching plays an important role in building our team of professional staff that work with industry clients to develop and deliver education programming. Reading both volumes of Coach Anyone about Anything helped me revitalize the power of coaching for our team. For those of us further along in our careers, be sure to read the story on page 249 - a great example of how an experienced professional can benefit from being receptive to coaching. Thanks Jed and Germaine for helping me consider more effective ways of extending knowledge to others as well as being personally open to coaching from many sources internally and externally. This book is a great resource and guide for for anyone who wants to leverage the power of coaching. Well done!
Coach Anyone About Anything Volume 2 is an invaluable resource for anyone who is charged with coaching, managing, motivating or leading anyone, at anytime! I found within this book useful tips and strategies that help me in coaching situations, management situations and frankly, in regular life situations. The book is written in such an easy to read format that I found myself getting to the end of a chapter and then not being able to put it down because the next chapter was too enticing. You will read this book once because it is so good you won't want to put it down. Then you will read it the second and third time to really absorb the great lessons. After that, it will sit on your desk as a wonderful reference and become an important tool in your coaching/management toolbox.
This book was given to me and I found out it was a jewel of my heart to unlock my potential as a consultant and advisor, but also help others exercise their abilities to creatively reach their goals. Coach Anyone, Vol.2 is not just a book to read, but a study guide and compass to frame your business for exponential success. I really like the style of writing for this book because it appeals not only to executives who know the lingo, but also to the layperson, just getting started....I am able to comprehend the science behind the sales business in a way that was not apparent to me before. Great job Jed & Germaine!!
This is hands down the best Coaching book for leaders and organizations on the market.Coach Anyone About Anything -How to Empower Leaders & High Performance Teams is an engaging, action-provoking guidebook. It illuminates a path that the reader takes to drive success in his personal and work spaces by understanding coaching and developing those who are: in his pit crew, directing from the cockpit, going along for the ride, and/or viewing the ascent from the launch pad. I love the shared colorful insights relative to decisionmaking, authorities, and inspiration.This is a must for those called to a role in which persistent and effective heavy-lifting is required. Inspiring!
Coach Anyone About Anything vol. 2 is a very useful guide for the managers who are trying to develop their direct reports. In spite of not being a manager, this book gave me an insight on how you can coach anyone via listening to your player effectively. Reading this book made me realize how important it is for coach to put themselves in players place and shape their conversation based on individual protégé. I would highly encourage all the players who are being coached to read this book and understand the value of having a coach.
