A great help in building a coaching practice

"The New Private Practice" is a total overview of the coaching profession, with each chapter written by a different successful therapist-turned-coach. The book is divided into 4 sections: executive coaching, life coaching, peak performance coaching, and special niches. Each coach takes you behind the scenes into his or her business, telling the reader how to get started, what to charge, how to market for clients, what the coaching work is like on a day-to-day level. This is a unique look at what it takes to succeed as a coach today. This book is especially helpful in starting a coaching business. With an intro about the difference between therapy and coaching by Lynn Grodzki, who is an important voice in the field of business coaching. Highly recommended.
