Everything we do, and sense, happens through our brain. In Coaching the Brain: Practical Applications of Neuroscience to Coaching, highly experienced coaches Joseph O’Connor and Andrea Lages ask and answer the question: ‘How can we use our knowledge of the brain to help ourselves and others to learn, change, and develop?’. This book will show you how to apply insights from the latest neuroscience research in a practical way, in the fields of personal development, coaching and cognitive therapy. Accessible and practical, it begins with an overview of how the brain works along with an explanation of how our brain changes due to our actions and thoughts, illuminating how these habits can be changed through neuroplasticity. Understanding the neuroscience of goals and mental models helps us to work with and change them, and clarity about emotions and the emotional basis of values can help achieve happiness. Most importantly, neuroscience illuminates how we learn, as well as the power of expectations. The book also explores the key lessons we can take from neuroscience for high performance and leadership. Eminently accessible, this book gives you new tools to help yourself and others create better futures. As a whole, the book will provide you with a new respect for the depth and complexity of your thinking and emotions. Coaching the Brain: Practical Applications of Neuroscience to Coaching, with its clarity and practical application, will be essential reading for coaches in practice and in training, as well as leaders, coach supervisors and HR and L&D professionals, and will be a key text for academics and students of coaching and coaching psychology.

Practical Applications of Neuroscience to Coaching

Coaching the Brain

Coaching is very big business. Over the last decade it has become one of the most popular approaches to personal and business development. Coaching books tend to focus on just one method, and just one of five main areas: Executive coaching (for senior business people); Business coaching (for companies to improve results); Life coaching (for people who want a better sense of fulfilment and wellbeing); Sports coaching (for individual athletes); Team coaching (for teams in sport or business) Pragmatic and informative, How Coaching Works is the first to explain the key concepts that underpin all of these different areas. It also explores how different ideas have blended to give rise to what we know as 'coaching' today, and singles out what works. The authors are two of the world's leading experts in this field. In How Coaching Works they have created a must-have book for practising coaches, students and anyone interested in the subject.

 Joseph O’Connor

Una dintre trăsăturile care au făcut din "Coaching cu NLP. Cum să fii un coach de succes" un bestseller este că propune principii bazate pe NLP la fel de folositoare în management, afaceri, sport sau viața personală – ei bine, cam în toate domeniile în care comunicarea este importantă. Deoarece coaching-ul este o artă a întrebărilor corecte și a răspunsurilor care decurg firesc din ele. El îți indică problemele asupra cărora trebuie să te concentrezi pentru a avea succes și pentru a-ți împlini visurile. Fără îndoială că programarea neurolingvistică a devenit astăzi, în multe cercuri sociale și profesionale, mai populară decât psihologia clasică sau psihanaliza. Dar cu ce contribuie ea la îmbunătățirea performanțelor și a stării de spirit generale? Joseph O'Connor și John Seymour prezintă, cu onestitate și cu o capacitate de sinteză impresionantă, o multitudine de subiecte și de tehnici abordate de NLP de-a lungul deceniilor. NLP-ul se bazează pe ultimele descoperiri din domeniul psihologiei: de fapt, e vorba despre tehnici străvechi de transformare a personalității (meditație, vizualizare etc.), al căror sens științific a fost clarificat abia de jumătate de secol încoace. Dar autorii ne avertizează că nu e chiar atât de simplu, că totul trebuie gândit și aplicat contextual, ținând cont de scopurile și idealurile fiecăruia. Dincolo de caracterul ei explicativ, Introducere în NLP este o invitație la înțelepciune, echilibru și bună măsură în toate. Fiindcă, odată ce pătrunzi în tainele tehnicilor prezentate aici, înțelegi că ești parte dintr‑un întreg, că succesul durabil vine doar din comunicarea și conviețuirea armonioasă cu ceilalți.
