Coaching for Performance :
Essential coaching skills for manager
Program Introduction
Coaching is increasingly becoming one of the most sought after and important skills for anyone in a work environment. It is a skill that no manager can live without. The days of direct commands from managers to their employees are long gone. The importance of inspiring and guiding employees to realize their abilities and discover their power and responsibilities can no longer be ignored. This is why any successful company is now deeply interested in formal and informal coaching carried out continuously in the workplace.
Coaching is not limited to managers and team leaders. Coaching skills are essential in helping and inspiring your colleagues, friends and family. This course focuses on the latest proven methods of performance coaching and covers important topics such as structuring effective communications, successful questioning methods and active listening techniques, the GROW model, human behaviours, motivational conversations, giving feedback or praise and many other relevant topics.
This performance coaching skills course will introduce you to the mentality of successful coaches, the effective methods of managing resistive or defensive coachees, the ability to control your emotions and to use others in inspiring and directing them towards achieving their goals.
We have always been told what to do by our parents, teachers, boss or even our colleagues. Telling however, has proven ineffective when it comes to successful coaching. This course will teach you about sound and fundamentally proven coaching techniques which promise clear vision, measured objectives and great results for coachee.
We know the best way to learn is by examples and hands-on experience, therefore this course is packed with effective practical and interactive exercises which would help you to quickly grasp different aspects of a well-delivered coaching session. Many questioning examples, scenarios and case studies are also provided throughout the course.
