Introduction to Coaching
Discover different coaching strategies and learn how to practically apply them into your working environment.
Overview
Coaching is quickly becoming one of the most important skills people professionals need in the workplace, but it’s also arguably one of the most challenging. As a coach, you must support and encourage your employees to unleash their potential, whilst balancing your people’s roles and responsibilities with the immediate needs of the business.
This course presents a variety of coaching techniques and the opportunity to practice the different models and skills learnt with other participants in a safe environment. Delivered face-to-face, you’ll work with an experienced practitioner who will share know-how and provide feedback in real-time. This programme will give you the confidence you need to implement new coaching models within your workplace.
