The Psychology of Coaching, Mentoring and Learning 2nd Edition

Learning is a pivotal theory of the book. Mentoring and coaching can be viewed as a collaborative project for both parts. The narrative approach to mentoring and coaching unfolded by Law can be seen as one of the foundations to create this dialogical space.
―Professor Reinhard Stelter, PhD, University of Copenhagen

In a significant and necessary way, The Psychology of Coaching, Mentoring, and Learning adds to the process of professionalising coaching.
