Rezensionen

Ho has written a thoughtful book integrating and drawing from
his previous work in learning theory and narrative approaches. The
result is a highly practical text that encourages practitioners to
really think about what they are doing and build their own, robust
framework of practice from an existential, enquiry based
perspective.

--Dr Alison Whybrow, Coach and Business Psychologist,
London

This insightful book provides a unified approach to coaching,
coaching psychology and mentoring practice. An excellent overview
to the field.

--Professor Stephen Palmer, Centre for Coaching,
London
