Organizations that cultivate a coaching culture are shown to have more engaged employees and higher levels of team and individual performance. The most successful managers and leaders have the qualities of a great coach. They are committed to developing their teams and providing opportunities for their staff to grow and achieve more.
Are you wondering how you would balance managing the business while developing your people? Even better, would you like to know how to do it while improving business results?
One of the ways to support this is by further developing your skills so that you can take a coaching approach to your management style that fosters a climate of communication and collaboration. Coaching is a highly visible and positive demonstration of your commitment to ongoing personal development and performance improvement. Developing these coaching skills will significantly improve your performance as well as positively impact the performance of your direct and indirect reports. Leaders who use coaching skills can improve morale, retain their key people, provide better customer service in their organizations, and experience higher productivity overall.
