Connecting all three: coaching, business, and leadership
Many coaching books focus on the conversation. Many business books focus on the business. Many leadership books focus on the leader. Business Coach connects all three, giving coaches a practical framework to understand the business context without losing the discipline of professional coaching.
A strong coaching conversation can create insight. But insight alone does not create business impact.
A practical architecture from business context to impact
Connecting business context, value creation, leadership, coaching, execution, and impact. The complete LEADX™ execution system is developed separately in LEADX™ — The Leadership Execution Operating System.

Who this book is for
Five differentiators
Not a book to simply read
The traditional question: "How do I help my client?" A Business Impact Coach asks further.
This book is designed with awareness of contemporary professional coaching and business coaching standards. The ICF Core Competencies are the foundation of professional coaching, while WABC is one reference point for business coaching. The frameworks in this book are not ICF or WABC credentials, and do not replace the standards of either organization. They are original practical frameworks developed around the LEADX™ Business Impact Coaching Model.
