The book
Cover art: Dennis Samson
Human beings are expert storytellers.
“Don’t Just Have the Soup” is a collection of 52 analogies from Alan’s coaching practice. Sometimes, the analogies come to his own mind. Sometimes, they hatch from the minds of clients or other coaches.
Analogies are a simple way to weave stories together and meet people where they are. In coaching, they're a powerful tool for reframing what the client is experiencing.
They’re organized around 6 topics:
The leader mindset
Communication
Time and attention
Relationships
Transitions
Coaching
