Summary
Today, coaching is recognized as one of the most effective human resource development processes available, and it is becoming increasingly popular in organizations of all sizes. Faced with historically low levels of employee engagement - as little as 13 percent, according to Gallup's latest survey - business leaders see coaching as key to unlocking the human talent, creativity, and innovation hiding in plain sight in their workplaces. And rather than bringing in coaches for this purpose, they want to integrate coaching into their company culture - a 2015 study by the International Coaching Federation and the Human Capital Institute found that 81 percent of organizations surveyed planned to train managers or leaders in coaching skills.
The Master Coach was written for these leaders and is perfectly positioned to become the definitive work on the topic. Drawing on the wealth of experience that has made Gregg Thompson and Bluepoint Leadership Development the choice of numerous Fortune 100 companies, it illuminates the essence of what it takes to be a great coach. The Master Coach will appeal to leaders at all organization levels, showing them how to make a significant shift in their attitudes, values, and behaviors and become more coach-like in all their daily interactions and conversations.
The Master Coach is based on the simple but profound 3Cs Coaching Model. This proven approach asserts that to master the art of coaching one must have an exemplary character that invites the trust of others, be able to form rapid connections with others at a deeply personal level, and have the ability to initiate and guide intense, attitude-changing conversations. At every step, Thompson reminds listeners that coaching is not merely about what the coach says or does; it's about who he or she is.

Thoughtful and thought-provoking content. Terrible narration.
The high quality content of this book is significantly detracted from by the poor narration. The narrator at time clears their throat, repeats sentences that have been mis-spoken, hesitates when has mis-spoken so is aware of mistakes, speaks so fast at time that words are mumbled. It really is distracting.

Very Very Good
In terms of Coaching, there are few bools that compare to this and those that do are generally at the top of everyones list. I don't think I need to say anymore about how essential a listen this book is to coaches and leaders alike.
HOWEVER, the narration had two flaws that tarnish, what would otherwise, be a 5 star review and they are:
1. Speed: There are far too many occasions where I litterraly checked the speed of the player due to the narrator speeding through the narrative often flashing by some very pertinent points.
2. Editing: People make mistakes, this is life. But editors make a living for this reason so there is no excuse for coughing, re-reads and missed words. I stopped counting the editing errors at about ten 😒

Content is average, narration terrible
There was nothing new in this book. The narration was very distracting, with a monotone voice, no intonation. The editing was also very poor, with repeated sentences and even a cough.

Highly interesting listen
Highly interesting listen and well narrated. However book needs some editing. It's very annoying that on multiple occasions the narrator repeats himself or stops mid sentence. Clearly an editing issue rather than narration.
