Coaching
What different coaching models work? How do you reach those "ah-ha" moments? How can coaching spark change and action?
Coaching is a conversation with a specific purpose. You can use coaching formulas, all of which are useful. But at the heart of effective coaching is an excellent relationship, first class listening skills and great questioning. You can use directive coaching to develop skills and expertise or give instructions. On the other hand, you can be more non-directive to facilitate problem solving, build self-confidence and encourage the people you’re coaching to find their own answers.
At the end you will:
- develop a coaching approach that works
- create the right environment for successful coaching
- build rapport and coaching relationships
- use and adapt coaching formula
- listen and be attuned to people you’re coaching
- ask a wide variety of alternative questions
- use the quiet leadership approach to coaching
- use directive and non-directive coaching approaches.
Why is this important?
Regular coaching has a positive effect on individual behaviour. It’s one-on-one specific and commits individuals to actions and clear accountabilities.
