Coaching
for growth
Coaching
is one of the most powerful management tools
you can master. Done properly it produces a continual
cycle of personal and business growth. So whether
you are being coached yourself to shed new light
on, say, performance or communication issues,
or
whether you are developing the coaching skills
of your managers and front line supervisors you
will maximise the effectiveness of everyone’s
contribution.
Managers
find that improving their coaching skills helps
them transfer knowledge and guide their staff
in on-going development. As a result, staff will
be better motivated, be more resilient and have
a clear understanding of what is expected. The
ABC
of developing
people
is a model for success.
I offer personal coaching to Directors, managers
and staff wishing to do their job better or who are
facing change or reorganisation. In addition I offer
coaching skills training to groups in various modules,
including Institute of Leadership Management certificate
courses.
Mentoring
trainers
My wide experience of running a training department
and designing and delivering courses means
I am also able to offer specialised mentoring
to training
and development staff keen to get the very
best results from their work.
Some
people may prefer to work within the more informal
environment of my “Coaching
Cafe” sessions
for individuals.
Programs at a glance
1. Personal development sessions (face to face, on line or by phone)
When things feel stuck, an external perspective and expertise can shed fresh light on performance or communication issues and suggest new ways to address them. Confidential, supportive coaching helps individuals re-assess a situation and gain new skills to take things forward.
Having agreed goals at the outset, the approaches used in each session are selected to meet the outcome. It may be starting with Solution Focus or taking a look at Myers Briggs Type
Indicator or exploring some new management techniques. You leave the session with agreed actions and new techniques to try out, reflect on, and review on subsequent occasions.
Too busy to meet? Well the on line sessions work over an 8 week period and can be accessed and worked on 24/7. Available individually or speak to me for an organisation package.
Duration: two-hour face to face sessions at fortnightly or monthly intervals works well, the newly available on line facility offered through Coaching interactive offers a fabulous way to get speedy progress.
2.
Manager development sessions
Coaching skills training to develop a coaching culture
Developing the coaching skills of your managers and front-line supervisors will maximise everyone’s contribution. Managers find coaching techniques are the most effective way to transfer skills, improve performance and ensure their staff’s on-going development. The result is better motivated staff who have a clear understanding of what is expected from them.
These training modules provide an opportunity to develop and practice new skills and techniques
.
Duration: Designed for you: half-day workshops to three-day programmes.
3. Mentoring
for trainers
Whether
it’s
help with designing a training workshop or assistance
with presentation and
delivery, mentoring for trainers can be one-off
or on-going.
Expertise and ideas to enliven delivery,
improve techniques and confidence and achieve
results are just a phone call or email away.

"Loraine’s
coaching has been hugely beneficial to
me as I have devised my first workshops
and training sessions. I talked through
a workshop I had to run and gained a
wealth of practical ideas. We designed
the programme
on the phone, I sent some draft information
by email and we agreed the activities.
In an hour I had a result, and then ran
a very successful workshop."
