'Thank you so much for writing this book and Institute. I wish we had had it when we started our coach training all those years ago. I am so pleased future generations will benefit from it. You have provided the definitive textbook for coach training. I do not know of a better, more complete resource.' - David Bowman, D. Min., PCC, Executive Director, Tarrant Baptist Association Fort Worth, TX USA'In one’s career it is a true blessing to meet and work with such a versatile and accomplished colleague as Dr. Gary Patterson. His book, 'The Primer Coach: A Guide to Integrating Coaching into Practical Leadership' demonstrates the perfect integration of coaching theory and background, ICF competency skills and personality insight. The core coaching concepts and skills are presented in clear actionable modules with learned skills building to form a way of interacting with others that helps bring out their best abilities. The coach approach set of competencies is then applied to a functional model of leadership development. The outcome is a two-pronged approach that gives the learner both a solid coaching foundation and a leadership model against which to coach for long term, sustainable success. It’s a pleasure to recommend you dive right into this coaching and leadership journey - you’ll be glad you did!' - Dr. C. Jeannine Sandstrom, MCC, CEO, CoachWorks International, Inc. Dallas TX USA'I have been coaching for over 20 years and trained thousands of today’s leaders to use coaching skills. One of the very first leaders that I ever trained was Dr. Gary Patterson... Over the past decade plus, Gary has retained his initial excitement and vigor for coaching. As his first instructor, it has been a joy and honor to watch him earn his ACC, then PCC, and soon his MCC. In this book, Gary shares his years of coaching experience, expertise, and most of all his excitement for coaching. The Primer Coach is very thorough and extensive in its offering of tools and resources. I especially like the Dialogue Coaching Model: •Determine the Need•Decide the Direction•Design the Strategy•Disrupt the Obstacles•Describe the ActionsI offer two thumbs up for the depth and breadth of this book. It will not disappoint you as you read it cover to cover. It will be an excellent resource of new and seasoned coaches. I strongly encourage you to read this book.' - J. Val Hastings, MCC, President: Coaching4Clergy and Coaching4TodaysLeaders
