The Coach U Personal Development Workbook and Guide

This book is a texbook/workbook to be used WHILE taking the Personal Foundation course through Coach U or with a Coach U trained Life Coach. What the other reviewer said is absolutely true: if you don't use the book in either of those circumstances, it won't make sense and ABSOLUTELY won't be worth the $90 pricetag.That said, using this workbook with a Coach U coach or through Coach U's offerings of this class, the program CAN significantly change your life (it's an incredible program--I've taken it more than once & use it with my clients, who love it). But if you're planning on doing independent personal development work by yourself, steer clear of this book! Purchasing it will probably make you as annoyed as the previous reviewer.The reason I gave it a 4 instead of a 5 is that I think the $90 pricetag is REALLY too high. I own it, and I would buy more for my own personal use, but for $90, you can bet, I'm doing my exercises on a separate sheet of paper so I can reuse the book I have.

Great workbook!

This slim volume is filled with unknown catchphrases and undecipherable gibbery lingo. It is clearly the book that get's handed out as an overvue to Coach U's class of the same title. It is in no way a "manual" to stand on it's own.Most of the "Personal Development" sections are basic check list's regarding finances, physical environment, and emotional wellbeing (question's like, "Is your home neat and clean?" or, "Do you pay your bills on time?"). Some of the books inquiries could be helpful, but there is little, if any, supportive content.On the back of the book, as described on Amazon, it say's: "Now, for the first time, Coach U, Inc., is making it's complete course materials available in book form." What they don't say is how unusable the materials are without the course.If you are looking to clean up your own life, or get in touch with your personal preferences about life as you head into a coaching practice, read The Portable Coach by Thomas Leonard. It asks the same great questions, but with support and humor to back you up.

This is in fact a CoachU textbook/workbook. It is available on Amazon at a cheaper price, so that's a good thing. The information inside is meant to be read before classes and then discussed in more depth with instructors. If you're not a student at CoachU, you'll be lost with this book. If you're enrolling as a student there, it's a must-have.

Quick shipping, as expected. Thanks!
