Principles of effective coaching and mentoring

Course Details

Do you want your leaders and managers to get the best out of their teams?

One of the key roles of a line-manager is to achieve positive results, which is something that they often do via the performance of the teams and people they manage.

High-performing teams and high-performing leaders tend to go together, so it is vital that your leaders know how to get the best out of their staff.

Coaching and mentoring encourages people to think and act for themselves in terms of achieving goals and targets – they learn how to resolve issues and unlock the doors to success.

By learning and implementing coaching and mentoring skills, your leaders will be able to develop their teams into a group of high performers, providing the best platform for achieving organisational goals and targets.
