One Day

Coaching is one of the most important acts of leadership. Successful managers recognise that to get things done cost effectively they must ‘grow’ people to their full potential. Outstanding performance must be drawn from every member of the team. This requires clear direction, feedback and improvement advice.

Annual performance appraisals and quarterly reviews are not enough. Organisations need to create a culture where coaching and feedback occur as a routine part of each day.

Urging people to do better will not work unless they know how to do it better.

This innovative one day programme explains a structured approach to coaching.. The process involves breaking tasks down to their component parts, helping people improve performance in each element and enabling them to pull these elements together to achieve the desired effect.

The program is perfect for managers, team leaders and professionals at
all levels who want to become skilled at coaching others.

Course Objectives At the end of the course participants will: Understand the role and importance of coaching.   Know how to manage performance with a coaching style. Be able to coach the good, the average and the below average performer..   Be more skilled at supporting team members during periods of change..
