"Our world is undergoing massive waves of change and this book by Edward Hammett and James Pierce is the perfect guide towards helping individuals, organizations, and congregations navigate these changes. The way forward and through is not by command and control or decree from on high. Rather, the way forward will be led by those who know how to coach organizations and individuals through a process of awareness and discovery so that they are empowered to discover their own creativity and action. Sharing their expertise in coaching and organizational understanding, the authors come alongside the reader and offer a guide that will empower and encourage the individual and organization to jump into the deep and face these waves of change - all with hope and without losing one's soul in the process. The genius of this book is that it is both conceptual and practical at the same time, and accessible to anyone who chooses to engage it. Well done!"

“I love the HARMONY Model, it is an iron clad framework for any organization navigating change with the desire to foster a collaborative and culture empowering environment. It shows leaders how to leverage the tide of change to lift all employees and partners to the next level of organizational success together in the most harmonious and inclusive fashion.”

The Coach Approach is About …..
Learning to ride the waves of challenge and change is key to moving through fears and frustrations to a place of fun and fulfillment once again. Identify limiting beliefs that bind you. Gain clarity and confidence which sabotage you. Embrace the new with courage and conviction to move forward and achieve your goals and ambitions! Life is too short to stay stuck!
We can walk with you as a thought partner to get you riding the ‘waves of change’ rather than ‘being washed out by them’.
Our Life Lessons Include:
Breakups and Breakdowns Usually Proceed Breakthroughs
Soulful-leadership is more about collaboration than power and authority
Pain is a teacher for some of life’s most powerful lessons and advancements
Unignored chaos is often the pathway to harmony
The interesting part of the book is that the reader not only benefits from the content but the internal coaching dialogue that the book generates within the reader.
In so many ways the reader gains both knowledge and application tools while becoming the PBC (person being coached) by the end of this well-crafted gift to the coaching profession. Without realizing until late in the read, one is personally benefited for having read the book and by way of that experience acquires a heightened capacity regardless of whether seasoned sage or aspiring coach.

“Making Shifts frames concepts of powerful and transformational coaching experiences I can testify work! :
Eddie's approach to coaching is unique and effective. I have been able to break free from self-imposed limitations and develop a stronger sense of self-belief and confidence.
With Eddie's guidance, I've learned valuable strategies for maintaining focus, setting achievable goals, and overcoming obstacles. He has a remarkable ability to guide me towards solutions and insights that I might not have discovered on my own. His deep understanding and empathy create a safe and nurturing space where I feel comfortable exploring my thoughts and feelings.
Thanks to Eddie's coaching, I've not only achieved professional success but also experienced significant personal growth. I now approach challenges with a more positive mindset and am more resilient in the face of setbacks.”
