Coaching Essentials®
Behind Every Engaged Employee is a Manager with Excellent Coaching Abilities
Many managers are unaware of how crucial coaching is to their employees’ performance, growth, and development. To boost productivity, foster a culture of trust and autonomy, and produce superior bottom-line outcomes, our leadership coaching program, Coaching Essentials®, teaches your managers how to coach rather than manage their workers successfully.
Create a Consistent Coaching Culture
Our Coaching Essentials program can assist managers in being as effective as possible in helping their teams develop.
Our program trains managers in coaching techniques utilizing a hands-on training approach to provide your managers the mentality, crucial abilities, and organized procedure they need to hasten development and bring out the best in their team members.
The essential coaching competencies established by the International Coaching Federation are aligned with the fundamental coaching abilities taught by Blanchard’s program. The course is led by Master Certified Coaches with extensive expertise from Blanchard, who have worked with managers for over 20 years.
Your managers will become excellent managers with a coaching style of leadership who understand how to grow their teams and provide more significant outcomes for your business.
