December brings us a guest writer [Deb Sherwood](https://www.annemariecharrett.com/author/deborahs/). Deb is a quality coach at Squiz, where she coaches over ten teams. Understandably she's got a unique approach to her role. It underlies the diversity of approaches a quality coach can take. Read her article on [Five Quality Coaching Tips (when coaching 10+ teams)](https://www.annemariecharrett.com/five-quality-coaching-tips-coaching-10-teams/)

### Some Quality Coach Stats! 

It's hard to believe that the quality coach book is only one year old! Some stats: 

- 17 premium articles on quality coaching
- Three free articles, [How do you do your testing?](https://www.annemariecharrett.com/how-do-you-do-your-testing/) [AB Testing Podcast](https://www.annemariecharrett.com/quality-coach-ab-testing-podcast/) and [What's your org optimising for? ](https://www.annemariecharrett.com/whats-your-org-optimising-for/)
- One guest writer

- 192 paid subscribers

I'm so excited about how the book is going and look forward to including more guest writers next year.
