"Susan's Summaries"
Join with the CCNI Community in reading and discussing business books designed to understand, develop, and grow your coaching practice. Each month we will review a book designated to increase awareness of entrepreneurial ideas as well as share insights and practices that will help generate clients. We will find books that will inspire, challenge, and guide you to grow your business.
As coaches, we tend to do most of our work alone. Let's set aside time to purposefully come together for prayer, encouragement, and refreshment while learning from best practices to enhance our knowledge and understanding.
"You will be the same person in five years as you are today except for the people you meet and the books you read."

September's Book:
In this newly revised third edition of Leading with Questions, renowned global leadership consultants Michael Marquardt and Bob Tiede describe how to ask powerful questions that generate short-term and long-term results and success. They show you how effective leaders use questions to encourage participation and teamwork, foster creative thinking, empower others, create relationships with customers, and solve problems.
The authors offer step-by-step guidance on the process of learning the art of questioning and techniques―like active listening and follow-ups – you can use in myriad situations with individuals, teams, and entire organizations. You’ll also find:
- The most recent research on how questions change people and companies for the better
- Interviews with over 40 world-leading executives and managers from a wide variety of industries and regions
