| COACHING AND MENTORING  Reclaim Your Life : A Choice  -- Mark Susnow, JD  Discovering what your values and priorities are is the first step to reclaiming your life. 
                        Very few of us take the time to explore what these values and priorities are. Creating balance 
                        in your life is a process of letting go of old beliefs and habits. When your life is out of 
                        balance you won't notice the signs or signals that let you know that something isn't right. © 2011,  Mark Susnow JD. All Rights reserved.   COACHING AND MENTORING  Lead for Sustained Success : Real Test of Leadership  -- Dan Coughlin  Not every company on the planet has had poor results through the recession. Some 
                        have continued to achieve remarkable results and deliver incredible performances. The 
                        challenge for leaders of every long-term successful company is to continually remind the 
                        employees and suppliers of what got them there. © 2011,  Dan Coughlin. All Rights reserved.   COACHING AND MENTORING  Inside the Head of a Head Coach : Researching Into Elite Performance  -- Richard Cross  Talent and developing talent comes at a price. If that's what your organization needs, 
                        aspires to and if that's what you want, then learning from the experience of effective Head 
                        Coaches will add significant value to an organization passionate about performance. The provison 
                        is that you have to be prepared to pay the entry ticket and stay the course. Head Coaches 
                        are outstanding people, great human beings and living with and learning from these 
                        individuals is mutually challenging and enriching. © 2011, Richard Cross. All Rights reserved.   COACHING AND MENTORING  The Internal Coach : Developing a Winning Team  -- Joseph Weintraub, Elaine Eisenman, Sam Perkins  Effective internal coaching requires appropriate systemic elements coupled with 
                        individual skills and attributes.  In addition to a skilled coach, a successful program requires 
                        appropriate coachees, an engaged boss, and organizational support and recognition. © 2011,  Joseph Weintraub and Elaine Eisenman. All Rights

                        conflict is something we all can learn _ and is something that can serve us all well, once learned. 
                        That we can then help others improve their own conflict competencies raises 
                        everyone's game, and makes conflict something far less daunting and distressing for everyone, as well.  © 2011,  Barry Zweibel. All Rights reserved.  COACHING AND MENTORING  Why a Good Leader Must Be a Good Coach : What Leadership is All About  -- Bob Murray, PhD, MBA  In the organizational sphere there are many theories about how a leader should 
                        behave. These are encapsulated in phrases such as `transactional leadership,' 
                        `transformational leadership,' `laissez-faire leadership,' `servant leadership,' `charismatic 
                        leadership,' `bureaucratic leadership,' `democratic leadership,' and so on. Each one implies a 
                        different relationship between the leader and those he or she leads.  © 2011 Bob Murray.

In the last 15 
                        years, there has been a considerable growth in the body of knowledge governing 
                        entrepreneurship research. However, entrepreneurship development still remains controversy-riddled. Based 
                        on extant studies, we argue that within the domain of entrepreneurial 
                        development, entrepreneur coaching is comparatively more beneficial to entrepreneurs. © 2011,  Vasanthi Srinivasan, Deepali Sharma, Devi

                        help staff improve their performance. Putting information on the Intranet is not enough. 
                        The expertise to do something better, new or different may require additional skills and tools, 
                        as well as access to relevant knowledge. Successful companies take practical steps to 
                        enable their people to compete and win. © 2011, Colin Coulson-Thomas. All Rights Reserved.  PERSPECTIVE  The Moral of the Moment : Coaching, Mentoring and Their Confusing Place in Management -- Rob L Jolles  © 2011, Rob L Jolles. All Rights Reserved.  INTERIVEW -- Stacy Blake-Beard  Coaching is a function of mentoring. Mentoring and coaching are both processes that 
                        may equip participants to adapt to change.   INTERIVEW -- Tanya Menon  A mentor is an internal colleague (who's often senior to you) who you look up to for 
                        informal advice. INTERIVEW -- Samuel A Culbert  Mentoring is making sure that the employee you think most deserving gets a fish; coaching 
                        is teaching an employee the fundamentals of fishing and hoping that he or she catches 
                        enough fish to sustain their appetite. |
