Leadership Programme
Leader as a Coach
Overview
In an environment of rapid change and competition, talent retention and engagement are crucial concerns for organizations. The onus is substantially upon the organization to make its executives successful as they are in serious need of hand-holding and guidance, feedback and energizing conversations to enhance their involvement, sustain their performance and continue to build their career. Knowledge here is best passed on in person – along with all the emotional components that comprise holistic learning. It is an imperative therefore for the Leaders to create an environment for engagement, ownership, development, career enhancement and commitment through coaching.
This two-day workshop is anchored in the philosophy of leveraging strengths of team members in coaching conversations and dialogue. It is designed to help Leaders build perspective as well as the skills required to engage in meaningful career and talent related dialogues with their team members. This is a hands-on workshop with classroom inputs, implementable takeaways, practice-feedback and personal guidance. With extensive use of exercises, assessments, activities, role-plays, video-recording and feedback, the workshop provides rich insights and build skills of the Leaders to successfully conduct coaching conversations with their team members.
