Book review: Ageing Upwards

“I think that is where this book adds real value for coaches – it highlights some areas where we might want to focus attention in working with clients (…) We have an ageing population that will work longer, into expanded and elongated life spans. It’s incumbent on coaches to work in these areas and become familiar and adept with some key ideas – including our own attitudes towards ageing in ourselves and others.”

Without awareness we will not know what we need to change.’
