ABSTRACT

This book takes you on a seven-day journey with your guides: 60 coaches and thought-leaders from around the world. Through storytelling, poetry and other creative approaches, readers can follow this programme alone or with others and take a practical and empowering look at the impact of the climate emergency on their practice and how they might respond.

Ecological and Climate-Conscious Coaching: a Companion Guide to Evolving Coaching Practice describes methods for adapting your practice while making a livelihood, reframing your work with urgency and action through exploration of the five-stage ‘Eco-phase’ cycle, moving from ‘Eco Curious’, ‘Eco-Informed’, ‘Eco-Aware’, to ‘Eco-Engaged’ and ‘Eco Active’. Designed to encourage discussion, raise awareness and increase confidence about stepping into a leadership role, the book explores the difference that coaching can make in the world as a result of greater eco-awareness and systemic understanding.

Featuring powerful stories from around the world, and with a treasure trove of resources and practical tools and methods, supported by reflective and practical exercises, this book will be an inspiring read not only for those involved in coaching, supervision, mentoring and leadership development, but also for leaders.
