How can coaching help?

Coaching is a highly effective way to develop skills and maximise workplace performance.

It works by taking a positive approach to problem-solving and learning.  In this way, negative, self-limiting beliefs are turned into positive action and results.

Coaching is used world-wide by thousands of individuals, businesses and organisations.  It is suitable for people working at all levels, from front-line staff to executives and directors.

Coaching enables people to gain clarity, perspective and resilience and encourages reflection, motivation and personal ownership. In doing so it improves individual and team performance

Instead we practice using actual coaching issues in groups and pairs. This allows you to receive coaching and experience the benefits for yourself whilst on this programme.

Here's what people say about our Coaching Training...

VCSE Manager

Practical sessions - trying out real situations and seeking different methodologies. Would recommend as an excellent form of finding solutions to improving work based issues/development of organisation. An enjoyable session, as usual. Brilliant and inspiring trainer.

Children's Centre Manager

It was helpful to clarify the difference between coaching and mentoring. I thought there was a barrier to using coaching, but have realised if I have time to tell, I have time to ask.

Primary School Deputy Head

Efficient, thorough and very professional. Would I recommend? Yes, definitely! The coaching sessions were extremely useful sessions which helped the team with their confidence and skills for coaching. The content was delivered in a bespoke way to maximise a sustainable impact for our school.

Manager

Using real scenarios to practice with made it real to your work, team and organisation. Would recommend as it would help people in their role of leading and managing. Enjoyed session. Lots of reflection on own practice, as sometimes when you have managed for a long time, you forget about coaching strategies.

School SLT

Very flexible to meet our needs. Liked the theory behind the different models and enjoyed practicing. Would recommend as not rigid approach and would give anybody at any level, way of dealing with difficult situations. Karen is fab!
