REVIEWS
We can do it all ladies – As a fellow mum and entrepreneur I stay sane by reminding myself that I am an excellent role model for my daughters. Be brave, be bold and believe you can. This book will help you pull the ripcord and take your first steps– it won’t be easy but where there is a will there is a way.
Nicole Soames, CEO of Diadem Performance and author of The Negotiation Book
A practical guide, written with so much heart! Christine draws brilliantly on her experiences as a mom and entrepreneur to give readers the tools to integrate their career and family lives.
Sanyin Siang, author of The Launch Book and CEO Coach
The book might as well be written to men, who want a balance between running their own business and their family. It’ s good, because it addresses the challenge of being a passionated person, who wants to create their own business and keep a close relationship with their children as well. It is not unusual that women understate their interest in their children to make sure they are taken seriously as business women. In this book they have got a voice. Thank you for that. … All in all, a fine and inspiring book, that I would recommend.
Ulla Bechsgaard, Jyllands-Posten (Danish Newspaper)

The Coaching Book
Coaching is an art, but it's far easier said than done. It takes courage to ask a question rather than offer up advice, provide an answer or unleash a solution. Giving another person the opportunity to find their own way, make their own mistakes, and create their own wisdom is both brave and vulnerable. Emotional intelligence can help leaders and coaches recognize how attitudes – both their own and those of the people they coach –prevent individuals from reaching their potential.
In this practical and inspiring book, EQ qualified trainer and coach Nicole Soames teaches you how to develop a coaching mind-set, recognize who and when you should coach, adopt a disciplines approach to coaching, learn how to manage the coaching conversation and give and receive feedback so that you can embed new ways of working. This is a fresh and innovative take on the traditional, how-to coaching manual.

Teal Dots in an Orange World
| In the last century, changes in technology have driven massive developments in the social economy. The Fourth Industrial Revolution demands new approaches to organizational structures and teams. A paradigm shift is emerging, putting engagement, relations, inclusion and freedom at the centre. We need small self-managed teams, in a team-of-teams structure to be relevant to employees and customers, and in order to adapt to a changing world. In his second book, Erik Korsvik Østergaard draws on the workings of Frederic Laloux, and his 2014 title Reiventing Organisations. Laloux discusses the five organizational stages to the modern workforce; the Red, Amber, Orange, Green and Teal stages. And with these writings,Østergaard presents arguments towards how the classical corporate structure at the Orange stage, has experienced a rise in teal dots, or rather, neo-modernist forms of team-oriented organisms, which express a reorganisation for the future workforce. |
