Audience members will become intrigued and stimulated by the potential impact of coaching in both their business and personal lives.
Our Approach
The audience is guided through Performance Coaching's coaching model with tangible examples of effective coaching strategies and outcomes. Participants learn:
- The distinguishing characteristics of a coaching style – Coaching is powerfully different from other management styles. Understand the importance, and value, of your role as a developer of people. And… learn the two other defining aspects of coaching.
- Why coaching? Why now? – As a management style that emphasizes developing people, explore the relevance, fit and application of coaching in your organization – now! Our insights deliver a compelling case for action using the tools that follow.
- The ‘What' of Coaching – Good coaches address clarity, recognition or competence in each conversation they have with their people. Learn what this means, how to have this conversation - and what results can occur.
- The ‘How' of Coaching – Learn how to successfully implement coaching from a practical, tools based standpoint. See how effective communications skills in consulting, teaching, mentoring, and in confronting situations, can help you ensure every interaction… is a coaching interaction - resulting in increased performance.
- Know Yourself – It starts with you. A coach's beliefs, and what they are experiencing, determine the context in which they coach. Knowledge and management of self is truly vital in effective coaching.
