(......) the way you write/talk can affect the person reading/listening"Part of a Review on Bookboon:D. H. Business Trainer, Advisor and Mentor ★★★★☆ 9 July 2015This short eBook (35 pages) is well worth a read. I like books that provide a step by step structure for doing something with each step explaining why what is being advocated will work. This book also has a series of exercises to put the process into practice. The book is thought provoking. ( ... ) as on page 10, the author says... 'When describing a lovely homemade dinner, one seldom tells you what is NOT to be found into that lovely dinner ...' This is to illustrate that negativity is often the starting point in mentoring when sessions focus on the Problem. This is probably unintended so identifying the issue is important. The book proceeds to outline how this can be rectified and certainly meets its aim as per the subtitle of the book ‘to bring out the best in your mentor and yourself’. The concept of scaling is very good! While this book is very good and thought provoking I am not sure I am ready to embrace all elements, particularly Step 2 – Context as discussed in chapter 2. ‘Besides wanting to know all about your Mentee’s goal, you also want to hear her talk about the rest of her life. At least some part of it. What is the context of her goal?’ I accept the value of this point. I also see why this step is so important in the 5 step process (after finishing the entire book).

Life coaching - Guiding feedback : "It is the human connection and the wisdom that helped more than anything. Ella is simply there with you with all her being and she stands beside you with a mind that is alive and curious. I could talk about issues that I thought no one could handle or understand without laborious explanation. After each session I naturally knew what needs to be done and I did it. I think that the support Ella offers is profound and helps us gets back to what we all seek in various ways and forms-unconditional regard and love."
