Psychosynthesis Leadership Coaching

This is a tour de force and makes a huge contribution to coaching and psychosynthesis. Aubyn unpacks the depth that is possible for coaches who want to work within a psychospiritual context that enables their clients to bring purpose and meaning to their lives and to their leadership. His words are highly accessible as he helps us explore the alchemy of coaching the Being and suffering of soul as clients find themselves and free their will to enable change. A must read for all coaches looking to make a real difference. Roger H Evans, author of the Creative Manager and 5DL Five Dimensions of Leadership, Co-founder and Director of Coaching, The Institute of Psychosynthesis, London What a delight. We have long-needed a book devoted to evolutionary psychosynthesis and holistic coaching. This rich book pays attention to what APECS calls CPPD, our personal and professional development, encouraging us to look at not only the complexities of the outer organisational world, but the complexities of our inner world such as our conflicting needs and motivations, creating synergy, and to put identity, purpose, meaning and values centre stage. Eve Turner, Chair, APECS; Co-founder, Climate Coaching Alliance; and Founder/Lead, Global Supervisors Network. Aubyn Howard delivers to new and more experienced coaches, organizational leaders, human resources and organizational development professionals the precious legacy of Psychosynthesis: an approach that has always been characterized by the tension to combine different active techniques and very solid methods of guidance to effective action with a deep, systemic and integrated vision of the human being that also takes into account his emotional and spiritual dimension, higher values, creativity and free will. A vision which, as the author states, we are in great need in this increasingly complex, uncertain and stressful world. Thank you Aubyn!
