Professional wisdom has suggested that coaching presence is purely about the coach – how they show up in the room, and what they say and do to support clients to reach their goals. But what if it was about the relational dynamics between the coach and client at an unspoken level? In this book, Tünde Erdös demystifies the power of the non-verbal coaching relationship. Put simply, the body does not lie. Using research from 184 videoed coach-client pairs and exploring their spontaneous interactions at a non-verbal level, we deepen our understanding of how clients navigate uncertainties (including in the coaching room) and how coaches can truly partner with clients to facilitate their goal attainment beyond traditional coaching. This book also reveals that a coach’s full-body presence can sometimes hinder learning and prevent progress towards a goal. Tünde Erdös guides the reader through Integrative Presence, where you will learn how to: •Build awareness of your state of presence •Identify potential coaching blind spots •Recognise when your needs block presence •Practice integrative presence in coaching •Foster effective coaching partnerships An excellent example of how coaching practice has informed research and with a foreword from Erik De Haan, this book will help anyone looking to enhance their coaching effectiveness through closer partnering with clients. "This book includes many high-quality and universal components to help professional coaches to make valuable progress." Patrick Delamaire, co-developer of the Global Executive Coaching Program at HEC Paris "WBECS is delighted to have been able to help support Tunde in her research to complete this valuable work on the importance of presence in the coaching experience." Marva Sadler, CEO, WBECS Group "This insightful book will help coaches to reflect on and enhance their practice." Prof Stephen Palmer, Wales Academy for Professional Practice and Applied Research, University of Wales Trinity Saint David, UK Tünde Erdös is an executive coach, coaching scientist, author and lecturer at HEC Paris. Tünde is passionate about staying curious as we co-create the future of coaching through a balance of science and practical wisdom.

Within The Craft of the Secure Base Coach, the authors take a new and combined approach to the professions of coaching and counselling to provide a guide for professionals wanting to better assist individuals and teams in periods of transition. Based on up-to-date scientific insights, and grounded in concepts from attachment theory, this book explores the themes of life transition based on the authors' own Transition Cycle model, and how professional coaches and counsellors can become a secure base for their clients during sometimes traumatic and transitional periods in their lives. Consisting of two parts, the first part of this book focuses on how to become a secure base coach, using case studies to illustrate how readers can affect real change with their clients when providing humanity and proximity to the professional relationship. The second part provides a more practical guide to working with individuals and groups, and how to apply the themes of the Transition Cycle to help with guiding transition. This will be a valuable resource for coaches, counsellors and therapists, as well as those currently in training. It will also be of use to leaders wishing to learn more about their coaching skills, as well as social workers and grief counsellors/therapists.
