'Team coaching remains a very desirable intervention in organisations. At the same time, it is conceptually opaque, with a need for differentiation from its competitors and more clarity for those who deliver it. Gill Graves undertook much more than just writing a book which makes team coaching practice more theoretically coherent. This book is properly evidence-based, providing important insights into variable and often intangible processes of team coaching from the perspective of coaches who gave their time to become not only contributors but co-researchers. An important read for those who care about thorough investigation of coaching practice.' - Tatiana Bachkirova, Professor of Coaching Psychology at Oxford Brookes University 'Gill's work on coaching combines both great academic rigour and huge practical impact. She has worked on many high-profile programmes at the Cambridge Judge Business School, and her work with managers and leaders at all levels has been inspiring and transformational. Her work in both individual and team coaching provides a compelling foundation for increasing development and performance. This book is essential reading for people seeking to enhance their own effectiveness and that of others.' - Dr Philip Stiles, Director of the Centre for International Human Resource Management (CIHRM), Judge Business School, University of Cambridge
