18 Best Life Coaching Books Recommended for Coaches
If you are a coach and you are looking to enhance your skills and knowledge, here are some books on coaching that I highly recommend you to read them now
No matter where you are on your current path, I'm sure you'll agree that there's always room for improvement. But let's face it, as human species, we're hesitant to change our ways and push our comfort zone.
For most of us, it's the fear of failure. Or maybe, it's the fear of the unknown or uncertainty. Yet, uncertainty could be a great compass for growth. One of the ways to put yourself in the face of uncertainty is by modelling how others have done it.
Personally for me, my library of books serves as a great model and have influenced my life in so many ways. It's like "picking my favourite person's brains" whenever I want, wherever I want, without an appointment.
