The book provides a tool kit for managers tasked with raising
performance and sustaining motivation. Organisations are being
judged by the way in which they accommodate the needs of the
individual in work and life-style terms. In this context, the
'smart' employer will not only be looking to develop policies that
retain talent through recognising their work-life issues, they will
be equipping their managers to manage that talent in ways which
maximise the contribution that individual can make.
The text introduces managers to techniques largely drawn from Brief
Therapy (De Shazer & Berg). Brief Therapy is used in the UK,
but primarily by social workers, psychologists and counsellors.
It's application to work settings is now growing. The attraction of
a Solution Focussed approach to coaching is that it offers
pragmatic tools that help managers structure helping conversations.
The book presents the principles of solution focussed thinking in a
language that is readily understandable by managers, and shows how
those principles can be applied to a range of issues which managers
may find themselves facing as willing or enforced coaches. The book
places coaching as an activity which can be done as part of the
daily process of management.
*Introduces managers to techniques drawn from Brief Therapy, based
on the work of Steve de Shazer and Insoo Berg
*Applies techniques to particular issues that may be brought to a
manager as a coaching issue
*Addresses how coaching can be encompassed within the daily demands
of a manager once the principles and tools are understood
