Participants: Busy managers and professionals, who want to
gain a basic understanding of the principles and practice of coaching in an
academic workplace.
Overview: This session provides a practical overview of:
How coaching works
How line managers can fulfil their roles and responsibilities as coaches
to colleagues
The benefits and practical outcomes you should expect from developing a
coaching culture within your team.
The core message of this workshop is that adopting a coaching mindset enhances
colleagues performance and frees up line managers, to focus more attention on
tasks and issues, which are important, but not necessarily urgent. Dealing with
these tasks is one of the crucial factors that make the difference between high
performing and averagely performing teams.
You will find this workshop particularly useful, if:
You don't know much about coaching but would like to understand the principles
You are considering whether to facilitate your team in developing more of
a coaching culture, using Coaching Conversations
