In the 1990s, I was privileged to attend one of the first Springboard courses, and I treasured the workbook, which I filled with notes reflecting the energy and enthusiasm of that day.

This is the sixth edition of a book, and the Springboard developers Liz Willis and Jenny Daisley are to be congratulated for keeping the brand fresh and relevant. I particularly enjoyed the new case studies. The self-questioning and planning sections of the book are clear and purposeful, and mean the book could be used by anyone working on their own or in a group.

Corporate buyers could also find a use for the book as part of coaching or mentoring programmes as it tackles areas such as goal-setting very well.

The new workbook generates as much light and energy as that first edition did almost 20 years ago.

Useful: 5 stars (out of five)
Well-written: 5 stars
