"The generosity in the material that is shared, the power in the
stories, the vulnerability and honesty in the case studies makes
this book an exciting and compelling read that brings you face to
face with your own learning edge of working with crisis. This book
stretches the assumptions of what it is to coach."
*Dr Alison Whybrow, Chartered Psychologist and Coach*
"The idea of this book was initially a little daunting, as I wasn't
sure how coping with crisis was something I wanted to be drawn
towards. Rather than uncomfortable reading, it's inspiring. To
connect with so many real and relatable stories of people's triumph
in almost impossible experiences caused me to wonder - what would I
do in this situation? Liz's research and references are
comprehensive and it's a read I think most coaches would get
something from."
*Julie Starr, Director, Starr Consulting and author of The Coaching
Manual*
"Neil and Alister provide both an inspirational and thought
provoking piece of writing as well as a range of methods and
tools."
*Peter Hawkins, Emeritus Chairman of Bath Consultancy Group and
Professor of Leadership at Henley Business School (about the legacy
thinking chapter)*
"[the] writing resonates with the biggest challenges facing
businesses now. The key question I am asking myself after reading
the chapter [on legacy thinking] is... [W]ould shareholders be
better served by adopting legacy thinking and looking to the long
term?"
*Andrew Jones, Finance director for an international fund
management company*
