Gestalt Coaching: Right Here, Right Now

In Gestalt Coaching, Peter Bluckert draws on thirty years of experience as an organisation development consultant, executive coach and leadership trainer using Gestalt as his primary psychological framework to produce a long overdue and unique perspective on how to become a better coach using Gestalt techniques. Gestalt Coaching sets out an accessible, succinct yet critical examination of the approach, key concepts and emerging methodology for Gestalt coaching practice. This combineswith extensive use of case material derived from a wide range of organisational settings where Bluckert has applied the principles and practice of Gestalt coaching at the one-one, team and culture change levels. The result is a rare opportunity toappreciate the power, depth, subtlety and impact of an approach that offers much tobeginner coaches, coaches-in-training and more experienced coaches. You will also gain fascinating insights into the mind of an experienced coach throughthe discussion of presence and the intentional use of self as instrument of change where the coach selectively shares their interior and exterior world in the service ofthe client.This leads into the consideration of how to train, develop and supervise coaches to work from a Gestalt approach and methodology. Written for aspiring and practicing coaches, coaches-in-training and their tutors, coach supervisors, consultants, HR and learning and development specialists it will also appeal to executives, senior managers and professional counsellors transitioning into careers in corporate coaching.
