"For anyone lacking in career or life direction, some insightful ideas and practical activities designed to question choices which may not sing from the heart. A holistic approach to goal setting through looking at achievement through a very different lens."
Emma Robinson, Careers Consultant, Oxford Brookes University, UK

"This book is offering a practical and research-based framework to coaches, mentors, line managers, coach educators and anybody else involved in developing others for crafting more meaningful goals. I am using the ideas and exercises in this book with my coaching clients who found they are highly motivated to work on their goals and the approach benefits their well-being. Being more focussed on their learning instead of performance liberates them to find new resources to fulfil their potential and achieve their goals. Personally, having used the goal-striving framework as a self-coaching tool for some time now, my business has benefited immensely as I am aligning the business goals with my overall life goals, hence making them more sustainable."
