Synopsis

PROPEL: A Framework for Transformative Coaching in Leadership and Personal Development presents a structured yet adaptable coaching framework designed to address the growing complexity faced by leaders, managers, coaches, and individuals across organisational and personal contexts. Grounded in real-world coaching practice, the book introduces PROPEL as a six-stage model that guides purposeful diagnosis, resource mobilisation, collaboration, proactive action, continuous evaluation, and learning through leadership by example.

Rather than treating coaching as a standalone intervention, this book positions it as an ongoing developmental process that supports both immediate problem resolution and long-term capacity building. The PROPEL framework equips readers to move beyond reactive responses, enabling them to anticipate challenges, mobilise available resources, and foster sustainable growth within individuals and organisations.

This Second Edition includes a newly written Epilogue that extends the original framework by foregrounding the combined roles of proactivity and human connection. It reframes PROPEL not only as a coaching model, but as a lived philosophy that informs leadership, decision-making, and everyday practice. The Epilogue also prepares readers for the continued exploration of these themes in the forthcoming volume, PROPELled to Lead: Unleashing Proactivity and Human Connection in Coaching and Life.

Written for coaching practitioners, leaders, HR professionals, and those committed to intentional personal development, PROPEL offers both conceptual clarity and practical insight. It provides a coherent foundation for those seeking to coach, lead, and act with foresight, relational awareness, and purpose in an increasingly complex world.
