Críticas

"Coaching helps individuals, teams, and the institution as a whole balance themselves amidst constant change. It does this by improving the quality and consistency of interaction in the workplace... Coaching strengthens individual and organizational durability. It poises individuals and teams in an otherwise unpredictable environment. This is the ultimate position from which to be consistently effective." -from the Introduction
