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 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.
Training
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
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.
Duration: two-hour sessions at fortnightly or monthly intervals
usually work best.
