Developing the Coaching Skills of Your Managers

Increasingly companies throughout the world are realizing that giving their leaders the skills to coach their team members brings many important benefits to the entire team. Just some of the things that happen when a leader approaches a conversation from a coaching perspective are that

• together the two can identify and solve problems before they become unmanageable,
• the subordinate becomes an important source of ideas for looking at and resolving dilemmas,
• and the foundations of trust between the two are strengthened.

In our programs for developing leaders as coaches, we partner with the Academy for Coaching Excellence. We design our courses so that the learning is as relevant and practical as possible to leaders in the field. Our goal is for participants to see clearly how applying their coaching skills can impact their working relationships, and for them to be confident in putting them into practice.
