    • How to set up an effective coaching session
    • How to use coaching to correct unproductive behavior
    • How to use coaching to be a better trainer

    Briefcase Books, written specifically for today’s busy manager, feature eye-catching icons, checklists, and sidebars to guide managers step-by-step through everyday workplace situations. Look for these innovative design features to help you navigate through each page:
