REVIEWS :“This book fills an important gap in the coaching literature.
Psychometric data figures increasingly in the background materials
coachees bring to the learning alliance and the book provides valuable
guidance on how to make safe, effective use of a wide range of
instruments.”
Professor David Clutterbuck, Clutterbuck Associates
“Executive coaches are increasingly aware that our observations
are invariably biased, distorted and selective. While that is part of
the charm and power of coaching, this textbook is invaluable in
balancing our sometimes overly subjective perception.”
Erik de Haan, Director of Centre for Coaching, Ashridge Business School
“A very timely book. Both coaching and psychometrics are fast
growing areas. Psychometric test results help build the foundation on
which effective coaching rests. Any coach should know this information.”
Professor John Rust, The Psychometrics Centre, University of Cambridge
“The book is for those new and experience using psychometric
tests, as well as students in psychology, psychometrics and human
resources management.”
Sci Tech Book News
“This book… is an invaluable addition to the growing number of
books on coaching. Psychometrics in coaching is a must for those
commissioning coaching, for coaches wishing to improve their knowledge
of this area and for those studying leadership. The clear style makes it
accessible for readers new to this area as well as being suitable for
experienced practitioners – a useful book to add to the library.”
