Today's highly competitive business environment demands that individuals and the companies which employ them perform at higher levels and with greater speed than at any time in the past. Organizational leaders and members alike must place a new emphasis on learning and harnessing of individual and collective creativity. This will require a new type of workplace relationship. Coaching provides both a technology and a process for the new workplace relationship.

About Coaching Essentials
Coaching Essentials effectively develops individuals in the skills necessary for coaching in the organization. During an experiential learning process participants:
- Experience first hand the cutting edge coaching technology now being used in leading domestic and multinational companies
- Discover how to inspire others to believe in their own success, sharpen their focus and make radical shifts to achieve extraordinary results
- Access a powerful structure and process which enable them to begin coaching for winning performance immediately
- Discover their personal coaching style using an inventory which positions them and their employees for rapid development
We believe that a learning process is more effective than a training event, and
it has been proven that when training is followed by coaching, skill retention increases by 30%. In order to accomplish this, we include a minimum of 3 coaching sessions for each participant as a follow up to the training.
How does Coaching Essentials benefit companies?
Coaching Essentials participants are challenged to raise their standards for their own skills and competencies. They practice with the tools to facilitate coaching conversations and maximize the effectiveness of workplace communications. Participants use case scenarios applicable to their unique business, printed materials and guided participant interaction to maximize their learning experience. The result is increased capability in applying coaching technology and enhanced confidence as organizational leaders.
Who in the organization should participate?
- Executives, managers and supervisors
- HR, organizational development and quality improvement professionals
- Others wanting to learn advanced communication and organizational leadership skills
Mastery of coaching skills is not dependant on previous managerial experience. Moreover, managers at all levels of training and experience will find the coaching tools to be powerful and immediately useful.
