The Human Behind the Coach cover

Ever come away from a coaching session feeling it didn’t quite hit the mark, despite your skills and knowledge?

It’s not just the words we use, it’s the music, the lyrics and the dance of the conversation that make a difference to the quality of the outcome, and getting these right demands not just skill but humanity.

Explore the human qualities that great coaches need to develop - humility, vulnerability, courage, and more - based on research from thousands of real coaching sessions, with stories, reflections, practical examples and tips on how to develop yourself and your work.

This is a book for anyone who wants to deepen their work without adding more tools and techniques, and who is willing to do some deeper work in service of having more transformational conversations.

An insightful and reflective journey into the soul of coaching, emphasizing humility, vulnerability, and courage as the cornerstones of transformational conversations. - NetGalley

I feel that many coaching books today only scratch the surface because they focus on the HOW of coaching, but don’t get to the core of what it means to BE a coach. I feel that Claire and Lucia have achieved this beautifully in their new book. I find myself stopping at every page to just reflect on a word or a sentence, and let their profound insights sink in. - Amazon

There are times when you know you need more as a coach, however the usual options (trainings, techniques) don't seem to match the real needs. This book is what I have been looking for at this stage. You can tell it notices the challenges coaches face when working with real clients and it does a great job at labeling them and giving useful advice. - Amazon
