By breaking coaching technology down to its foundational principles, this book equips coaches to enrich their practice by proactively identifying its benefits, while protecting themselves and their clients from its threats. A coach reading this book will:
•Unearth the truth behind the glossy veneer of technology, to discover what makes it work and why
•Explore the capabilities of technology to disrupt coaching, and discover what to do to optimise its use
•Develop an understanding of the sorts of technology available to enhance coaching practice at strategic and tactical levels
•Experiment with futurology, constructing a plan to preserve the profession of coaching
"The future lies in coach-AI partnerships ― using the strengths of both to provide even better client support. This book is perfectly timed to support coaches in making the transition to such partnerships."
David Clutterbuck, Special Ambassador, European Mentoring and Coaching Council
"Sam has written a thoughtful and engaging book that will help coaches of any technical ability to navigate the digital world."
Christine Bakewell, Board Member for Technology Thought Leadership UK ICF, IT Consultant and Leadership Coach
"A must read if you are a coach or people leader that wants to explore what is possible when coaching with tech. It made me truly consider how technology could help democratise coaching. Eye opening stuff!"
Liz Rochester, Director and Owner of Liz Rochester & Associates Ltd, Voluntary UK Chapter President for the International Coaching Federation 2021
"What the book does admirably is to provide an entertaining, enlightening, thought-provoking and practically useful overview of where we are with ‘coachtech’, and where we’re likely to go with it, should we be open to the possibilities it offers."
James Bridgeman, Co-Editor, Coaching Perspectives magazine
With a background in technology assurance, Sam Isaacson now leads Grant Thornton’s coaching services and is active with the coaching professional bodies. He has advised a range of organisations, from local charities through to global companies and government bodies. Sam led the introduction of the UK’s new Coaching Professional apprenticeship and is the first person to have coached a client in virtual reality.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
