"Parkins book is well-crafted, innovative and refreshing. She has a remarkable clarity to her writingCuriously, I began this book review purely as a professional project. Well into Parkins book and through several of the 50 tales, I realized I was in the midst of a meaningful coaching experience. It was as if Margaret was coaching me herself" (The Bulletin of the Association for Coaching)
