These Coaching Moments were created over the first several years in my own business as a leadership coach. I decided to write one every week and share them with leaders around the world, knowing that if my Coaching Moment resonated with just one person, I was touching them through coaching and helping them to become a better leader. This is the whole reason I took the leap into my own business--to help one leader at a time be the best leader that they can be.

At certain times, a Coaching Moment has come from an actual conversation or top issue that one of my clients faced that week. At other times, Coaching Moments arose from situations that I observed throughout the course of my day. All of them are common challenges for leaders at all levels.

Let these Coaching Moments serve as weekly practices for you. Browse the book alphabetically by heading, and find the leadership topic that hits home for you this week. Or pick a Coaching Moment at random. Try practicing one tip per week.

Having this book alone takes you one step forward in your leadership. May these Coaching Moments raise your level of leadership and bring you success and joy, as these have for me to have written them.

As you practice each one, commit to enjoy a great week.
