Books and publications
By Jedidiah Alex Koh · Revised [date]
Every book is published under Brave Your Story, the imprint of my coach education house in Singapore, and each one belongs to one of the three lines of the work. Titles marked with a page have their own page with an excerpt, the ISBN, the framework they teach and the programme that uses them as a set text. The others are here with where to buy them. Bulk orders for organizations and programme copies are handled through the Programmes section.
