Onine Coaching – A Great Way For Busy Managers To Stay Focussed!
We can offer a 30min Skype coaching session for just £49!
The term coaching is very much in vogue and people are clear what a sports coach is, but what does it mean in relation to a business? We like the following definition of coaching from Sir John Whitmore:
‘Unlocking a person’s potential to maximize their own performance. It is helping them to learn rather than teaching them.’[1]
Coaching is focussed on supporting the coachee and helping them to find and use the right strategies for them. Managers can use coaching to support the process or performance management.
We offer training to help understand and promote a coaching culture within an organisation. The training covers both theory and practice of coaching.
Participants get skills and knowledge that they can immediately employ within the workplace. Training ranges from taster sessions to fully accredited Institute of Leadership & Management (ILM) courses.
Know & Do also offer direct personal or business coaching sessions for individuals or small groups.
Coaching can be used to help organisations going through rapid transformational change by focussing in on what this means to individuals within the business.
We also offer coach support where we can coach coaches within organisations to help improve their practice.
Our cost effective contracted options allow organisations or individuals to block book coaching support over a minimum period.
We firmly believe that if coaching is to be effective that it must be as part of the overall business strategy and not simply something brought in when all else has failed. Countless studies show a real benefit to adopting a coach approach especially in time of significant change. People are always the biggest assets within a business and better employee engagement leads to a more healthy and sustained bottom line through increased performance and decreased staff turnover.
