The Ecology of Coaching breaks new ground as an approach to coaching. By focusing primarily on the space that is created between the coach and the coachee, Simon Walker moves our focus away from coaching skills and techniques toward coaching posture, awareness and mobility. Introducing powerful ideas such as the eight coaching postures, the Coaching Signature of the coach, the dynamics of the coaching cycle and use of metaphor, the book is stimulating and insightful. In addition, by isolating the essential elements of the coaching space, the author gives the coach powerful tools to both understand what make a coaching relationship potent and how to develop a greater sensitivity, nuance and mobility when working with clients.

This book starts from the perspective of the coachee as a learner and asks how the coach can become the expert facilitator to the particular coachee in front of them. Holding the client in mind, and with practical applications, The Ecology of Coaching is a coherent, original and compelling contribution to the coaching profession.

The book will be of interest to all coaches who aspire to be better at their role.
