In this completely revised third edition of his groundbreaking book, Hargrove presents his profound insights into the journey to becoming a masterful coach along with guiding ideas, tools and methods..

People and organizations flourish when they focus on human ideals, achievements, and best practices, which is why Appreciative Inquiry (AI) uses positive questions to build the strengths of organizations rather than emphasize their weaknesses. In this book the lessons learnt from AI are applied to executive and career coaching.
