"Coaching is an art, and it's far easier said than done. It takes courage to ask a question rather than offer up advice, provide an answer or unleash a solution. Giving another person the opportunity to find their own way, make their own mistakes and create their own wisdom is both brave and vulnerable. It can also mean unlearning our "fix it" habits. In this practical and inspiring book, Michael shares seven transformative questions that can make a difference in how we lead and support. And he guides us through the tricky part: how to take this new information and turn it into habits and a daily practice."

"Among a plethora of books, studies and op-ed pieces about the importance of coaching and how to execute this most critical of development interventions well, it's easy to understand why students and practitioners of the craft feel confused or overwhelmed by the array of approaches, frameworks and systems extolled as "the right way."Michael Bungay Stanier has expertly cut through this confusion with his new book in a manner that is simple to understand, realistic in its intention and ultimately effective to apply. I believe this book will establish itself as a powerful and useful toolset for the professional coach, the student learner and the people manager alike."

Hi there, it's Michael, the author. You might know my previous book, The Coaching Habit . It was an unexpected bestseller: more than 700,000 copies sold so far, 1,000+ 5-star reviews on Amazon (my favourite: "I have plodded through many books that wish they could be this book"), a Wall Street Journal bestseller, and used by people and organizations around the world.The Coaching Habit is about getting to grips with how to actually change your behaviour so you stay curious a little bit longer.

So I've been sweating on the follow-up. The pressure! The anticipation! But here it is, and I think you're going to like it. If says, "here are the seven essential questions to be more coach-like," The Advice Trap HBR , Fast Company

It sounds like it should be easy, but it's not. You have to tame your Advice Monster, that part of you that jumps in to offer up ideas, opinions, suggestions and advice. And it's taming your Advice Monster that's at the heart of this book. But there are also some specific coaching strategies, particularly on how to focus on what matters most. There are tools to make your conversations, coaching and otherwise, irresistible. There are even resources beyond the book itself, including a one-year, free leadership program from a 52-person faculty of cool, diverse, and provocative thinkers.

In 2019, I was named the #1 Thought Leader in Coaching, and was short-listed for the coaching award by Thinkers50, the "Oscars of Management." My work's been featured in journals such as , Forbes , and Inc. , and my company, Box of Crayons, has trained more than 100,000 people just like you in the tools and mindset required for this essential leadership behaviour: being more coach-like. You'll get all of that wisdom and experience when you read The Advice Trap . I'm pretty sure you'll find it a great investment of your money and time. (And, by the way, thank you in advance for buying it. I'm thrilled to know the book is going out into the world.)

Julie Starr is a coach, mentor, speaker, and writer who works to encourage coaching principles in everyday life. For her work in organizations, go to www.starrcoaching.co.uk and for open programmes, check out www.learnstarr.co.uk

Julie's coaching books aim to de-mystify coaching and mentoring, making skills available to anyone and everyone. Her aim is to encourage coaching behaviors to be so normal, natural and every day, that people don't even recognize them as coaching. Behaviors like listening with effective attention or offering an observation before a solution. Behaviors that suggest we see the value in someone else's process of personal enquiry - and trust in the ultimate benefits of that.

It's a quiet revolution, and a revolution just the same.

Julie also writes novels for Young Adults and her first book, Magic to Memphis, is now available. For further info, check out www.ruffdogbooks.com
