Book Description
As a coach, I strongly believe that everyone should have access to coaching. Yet I know that this isn't always easily available or affordable. I wrote The Quotable Coach: Daily Nuggets of Practical Wisdom to make coaching accessible to everyone. This book is designed to be a simple way to grow each day. It's not just a book of quotes, like others that you may have come across: with every single quote, I include a short reflection to help you dig deeper, plus a practical exercise to encourage you to turn inspiration into action. Ways to Use This Book Although the book is designed with 365 quotes, this doesn't mean you need to read a quote every day for a year (unless you want to!) You might choose to: Dig into five or six quotes every weekend. Read one quote every Monday - Friday with a small group of colleagues at work. Share and discuss a quote most evenings with your family or friends over dinner. Write out several quotes that are particularly meaningful to you. For maximum effect, please read the reflections and do the exercises. (I'd love to hear how you used and benefited from this book; please consider writing a brief review below.)

Book Description
The unrelenting pace of business in modern organizations places constant pressure on employees, challenging the physical and emotional resources of both staff and supervisors. Consultants have become familiar with the survivalist mentality among workers, each struggling to improve production, solve intractable conflict, and chart realistic growth. This book was written to help organizational consultants understand the chaotic processes and psychodynamic problems that influence executive behavior and performance. In engaging prose highlighted by substantial case illustrations, the author examines organizational conflict and shows how methods and techniques developed in clinical settings can be applied to coach executives and management teams. The book is an important read for consultants who wish to help executives develop human wisdom and to gain insight into the chaotic, "shadow" side of individual and organizational life.

Book Description
Coach John Wooden's teams won 10 NCAA mens basketball championships at UCLA and Sporting News magazine named him the greatest coach of all time. Yet decades after he retired and now after his passing, his wisdom capsulized so clearly in his famous Pyramid of Success continues to guide new generations of athletes, coaches, and people of all walks of life. In The Greatest Coach Ever, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes features 40 tributes from athletes, coaches, and other influential leaders like Bobby Bowden, Tom Osborne, Sue Semrau, Tony Dungy, Mike Singletary, Tamika Catchings, Joe Girardi, Jim Tressel and David Robinson playing honor to Coach Wooden and reflecting on how his example has challenged and changed them. Their stories can challenge and change your life, too. Coach Wooden appreciated the tributes and the honor of being called the greatest coach ever, but felt uncomfortable with the title. He was eager to see that this book points to the one whom he calls the greatest coach ever. I am happy being remembered as a man of integrity. I like that, --John Wooden, May 21 2010.
