Written for facilitators or coaches who need situational pointers in workplace settings,"The Visual Coach Handbook" is: A quick reference with a theme-based lookup system. It contains inspiring real-world examples where simple visuals are used to create more engaging workshops, meetings, and higher quality conversations. I’m pretty proud of this book you're about to hold in your hands. In these pages, I’m sharing some really personal stories of how I’ve used visuals to coach myself and my teams through tough spots. My hope is that it inspires you to grab a pen or an iPad and use simple visuals to help others, and even yourself, get from where you are to where you want to be. I get asked a lot for templates of the visuals I use. This book is more than a dictionary of templates. It’s got the building blocks of visual coaching that will help you be a better: • Note-taker• Communicator• Worker / Contributor • Manager• Coach• Facilitator • Consultant
