Coaching

In the last in this series of Nice Work, Philippa Lamb looks at why coaching has grown so big, so fast and asks what will be required for this new line of work to be viewed as a profession on a par with law & medicine.

Entrepreneurship - Learning to succeed

Also, 430,000 of us will set up a business this year - but just what does it take to become an entrepreneur?

The government is hoping that entrepreneurship can be taught and, to this effect, from September 14-16 year olds will be learning about it in schools.

In Nice Work's regular review we will be discussing 3 best selling books which also claim to be able to teach the prospective entrepreneur the skills required to make them successful.
