I would like to get more information on coaching and consulting models, such as GROW, SPIN, and would appreciate any thoughts on where this could be found.

Information on GROW
I have a book by John Whitmore called ‘Coaching for Performance’ which explains the GROW model. This is a sequence of questions which can be used to structure a coaching session. GOAL setting, REALITY check, OPTIONS, WHAT is to be done WHEN and by WHOM.
Hope this is useful.

Try Myles Downey and David Clutterbuck
Marcus – Myles Downey’s latest book Effective Coaching contains an explanation of a variation of the GROW model (page 29). David Clutterbuck has his own version for Mentoring sessions which could be shaped to suit coaching. Call David’s office at CAMS 01628 661 667. I am in the market for this information myself ie alternative coaching methodologies! Good luck from Oz.
Books about managers as coaches
I have collected a list of books about managers as coaches. The books have been published betveen 1990…1999. At the moment there are about 40 books in the list and I am trying to keep it up-to-date. If you send me your e-mail address I can send you the list. My e-mail address is kari.lahti@psyko.fi
