Neuroscience for Coaches Reviews

[A]chieves the rare feat of simplifying complex ideas and concepts and translating them to meaningful practical action. It is a must read for any coach seeking to enhance their knowledge, skills and credibility. * Ruth Stuart, Learning and Development Research Adviser, Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (about the previous edition) *
Amy Brann writes with an energy that makes you want to keep reading- think page-turner for the world of neuroscience. The book allows you to understand the application of neuroscience to coaching adding credibility and perspective on why this field will continue to effect what we do as coaches. * Helen Tiffany, former chair of the Association for Coaching (about the previous edition) *
As a neuroscience sceptic I've been converted! This book is full of great exercises I can use in my coaching practice. I'm in a position to provide a rational neuroscientific explanation for the interventions I make and moves me from 'Trust me I'm the coach' to 'Here's the explanation for why this will work'. * John Leary-Joyce CEO of Academy of Executive Coaching (about the previous edition) *
