    About this ebook

    Coaching Outdoors offers a journey of professional development, personal development and enriched wellbeing.

    Coaching Outdoors supports practitioners to step outside and make the most of what nature can offer the coach, client, organisation and planet.
    It contains essential practical advice and activities, together with engaging case studies and research – all laid out in an accessible and logical format.

    Discover how to: 

    • Articulate the benefits of coaching outdoors from a place of experience
    • Contract for psychological safety outdoors
    • Find resources in nature
    • Collaborate with nature as a coaching co-facilitator
    • Engage with nature when working remotely with clients

    Coaching Outdoors is the first handbook specifically on the value of coaching with nature. It is an invitation to leave the fast-paced, technology-focused world and reconnect with what really matters, in an environment where we were born to thrive.
