Power to your people-managers
This collaborative programme will purposefully provide your people managers with a coaching mindset, a toolkit to drive engagement and performance throughout their teams, and a collaborative, safe space in which to practice. Accessible cross-organisationally, or delivered directly to your managers anywhere, the programme can be experienced virtually, in-person, or as a blend of the two.
Enabling managers to adopt a coaching approach is a proven way to develop the emotional intelligence competencies; defined by Daniel Goleman in his definitive research, and shown to create high performance. Every week managers have conversations that can change lives. Equipping them with coaching skills to enrich those conversations, has become a priority in the modern world of work. And these skills can be applied in all kinds of other relationships too, at home and with clients — unlocking potential and revealing previously hidden relational riches.
Accessing the programme
Mixed cohorts, or direct to your managers
Individual managers can join cross-organisational groups; building and practicing their coaching skills among diverse and supportive peers.
We can deliver the programme directly into single or multiple cohorts of your people-managers; in-person, virtually or a blend of the two — and aligning with key values and cultural cues.
Six core modules, explored collaboratively
From coaching contracts, to career conversations
Defining the why, when and how of a coach approach; positioning it as as a method for relational effectiveness and as a means of purposefully facilitating the day-to-day growth, performance and enjoyment of others.
Exploring the fundamental power of questions, the opportunity for 'collaborative contracting,' and an understanding of why a coaching approach can be such a powerful relational tool in specific contexts; from daily check-ins to more structured and scheduled 1-1s.
Understanding and practicing the timeless GROW model is core to the programme. When managers properly define Goals, and cycle through conversations that explore a Reality, potential Options, and accountable and action-oriented Ways forward, they turbo charge performance.
Exploring a coaching approach has a powerful impact on how positive, and development focussed, feedback is provided to team members; as well as how managers pull it in for their own awareness and performance enhancement.
When we intentionally flex our listening muscles, signal our focus and play back what we're hearing, we enhance communication, invite openness and get really clear on actionable steps towards growth.
We land the powerful application of coaching skills in all kinds of relational directions; whether revealing their impact on problem solving with clients or enhancing the relationships that matter the most to us out of work.
Cohorts are led throughout by one of our ICF accredited associate coaches, each bringing sector specific experience alongside an inclusive collaborative and action-oriented approach.
Each module is launched and explored through a live, experiential workshop; facilitated by the coach leading the group, and creating a safe space for discovery, sharing and plenty of experimental practice. Workshops are run cross-organisationally, or directly into cohorts of your managers - virtually or in-person.
Alongside the experiential workshops, participants join personalised micro-learning pathways with action-oriented nudges shared directly throughout; encouraging the continual application and sharing of all that's explored directly within their relationships.
