Coaching for Workplace

Coaching is the most valuable management style a senior executive can possess. It is now commonly used by all of the most successful organisations to enhance the effectiveness of their key people, whilst also fostering a more trusting and open working environment.

A survey of 250 of the world’s most successful companies conducted by the Institute of Leadership and Management showed that the introduction of coaching into management practice resulted in:

• Better management performance
• Improved conflict resolution
• Increased confidence and motivation

Together these three outcomes greatly increase overall organisational performance.
