3.0 out of 5 stars mostly, simple stuff, December 15, 2012
By 
This review is from: Brilliant Coaching 2e: How to be a brilliant coach in your workplace (2nd Edition) (Brilliant (Prentice Hall)) (Paperback)
I borrowed the book from a library because it was on display and the title sounds intriguing. By now, I have finished 4 chapters and felt the content is mostly simple stuff with a lot of fillers. Nothing wrong, but not particular good except a few new ideas to me. I plan to browse through the book, just check if there are more gems. As a matter of fact, the structure make it very easy to skip unimportant stuff.
