"'Helen Zink provides a fascinating story that shows how team coaching not only transforms the teams relationship to itself but impacts the wider organization and their stakeholders. She helps the reader look at the work through many different perspectives. A great addition to the team coaching literature.' Professor Peter Hawkins, Ph.D., Chairman of Renewal Associates International, Emeritus Professor of Leadership and Global thought leader and author in Systemic Team Coaching 'Helen Zink offers a unique insight into team coaching in this single case study. By diving deep into a single case, the book is able to offer insights as the team develops over time and also offers multiple perspectives, giving voice to different characters. This is team coaching under the microscope, which gives the reader a richer, deeper and fuller experience of the complexities and intricacies of coaching a team.' Professor Jonathan Passmore, Ph.D., Director of Coaching and Behavioural Change, Henley Business School, UK, and Senior Vice President CoachHub 'This book is courageous, unique, insightful and a must read for anyone interested in teams. It is fascinating to read five different and illuminating viewpoints, told in their own words and to pick up on some of the, at times, unspoken tensions. This ""warts and all"" story shows honesty, integrity and vulnerability of the author and other contributors, and I applaud, admire and respect the unique scope this affords us as readers.'
