Coaching Skills for Managers

Build self-reliance in your team to improve their performance

Coaching Skills helps you develop more productive, confident and self-reliant staff and volunteers using a non-directive approach.

 

  The practical coaching sessions in this programme were especially useful – letting us put our new skills to the test. I’ll not only use this learning in 1-to-1 sessions with my team members but also with managers and peers.

workshop

The coaching approach was very practical and has given tools to progress some unresolved issues in our working relationships. It has given me a fresh perspective on setting objectives and giving feedback to colleagues which will contribute to helping us achieve even better results.
