Overview
We provide coaching skills training based on Sir John Whitmore's best-selling, time honoured, book entitled “Coaching for Performance” and Carol Wilson’s “Best Practice in Performance Coaching”. These programmes are designed at all levels from integrating coaching skills into your managers' communication styles to training and accrediting your own team of internal coaches, mentors and supervisors.
Purpose of the programme
- To provide executives with coaching skills and tools
- To train executives to become accredited as in house coaches and/or mentors and supervisors
- To enhance managers’ self awareness and enable them to tap into their innate resources and full potential as leaders
- To increase managers’ efficiency and time organisation by improving delegation skills
- To improve feedback skills
- To improve team coaching and cohesion
Structure of the programme
The Accredited Performance Coach Training course (Diploma Level) is a 5 day programme spread over at least 1 month designed to enable your leaders to get the best from themselves and their teams.
The accreditation criteria, standards and ethics of the training reflect those of the UK's independent coaching body, The Association for Coaching, of which Sir John Whitmore is Honorary Vice President and Carol Wilson is Head of Accreditation.
The style of the training is learning by doing. This is a very practical approach in which participants will have the opportunity to practise coaching specifically about issues currently arising in their workplace and to get feedback from our trainers and each other during the programme.
Course Components
The Accredited Performance Coach Training course typically consists of the following modules and can be scheduled to suit each organisation’s individual requirements; for example where executives are from different geographical regions, the final part can be completed by conference line.
Whether or not a manager wishes to act as an internal coach, we find that elements 2 and 3 below embed the coaching skills more fully into an executive’s leadership style.
| Module 1: | 2 days of coaching skills training | |||
| Module 2: | 2 days of training in how to deliver a series of formal in house coaching sessions to other managers | |||
| Module 3: | 1 day of assessment after candidates have delivered 12 hours of coaching. Accreditation for candidates awarded a pass |
|||
| Materials: | A comprehensive Workbook is provided for sustained learning and reference after the programme. |
