Praise for Developing Coaching Skills: A Concise Introduction

RDs often find themselves in scenarios where they will be coaching staff and/or patients. In addition, career planning and success may involve the use of an individual having the proper coaching skills. This CPE program provides information of not only how coaching works, it offers guidance for development of coaching skills. I would recommend this CPE program to RDs, DTRs and CDMs along with any other healthcare professional to develop coaching skills.
