Coaching Presence

Professional wisdom has suggested that coaching presence is purely about the coach â how they show up in the room and what they say and do to support clients to reach their goals. But what if it was about the relational dynamics between the coach and client at an unspoken level? In this book TÃnde ErdÃs demystifies the power of the non-verbal coaching relationship. Put simply the body does not lie. Using research from 184 videoed coach-client pairs and exploring their spontaneous interactions at a non-verbal level we deepen our understanding of how clients navigate uncertainties (including in the coaching room) and how coaches can truly partner with clients to facilitate their goal attainment beyond traditional coaching.   This book also reveals that a coachâs full-body presence can sometimes hinder learning and prevent progress towards a goal. TÃnde ErdÃs guides the reader through Integrative Presence where you will learn how to: âBuild awareness of your state of presence âIdentify potential coaching blind spots âRecognise when your needs block presence âPractice integrative presence in coaching              âFoster effective coaching partnerships  An excellent example of how coaching practice has informed research and with a foreword from Erik De Haan this book will help anyone looking to enhance their coaching effectiveness through closer partnering with clients.   "This book includes many high-quality and universal components to help professional coaches to make valuable progress.
