Overview
Today's leaders recognize the need to maximize productivity in their
team and that can only happen when employees are committed and engaged.
It's no surprise that actively engaged employees are 20 to 40 percent
more productive in the workplace than those that aren't engaged.
In order to have a team of high performing and successful employees, you
need to know the best techniques to engage and motivate them. Not only
does it make your job easier, coaching greatly improves employee
performance when done correctly.
While once considered a "soft" skill, coaching for high performance is
now recognized as an effective method that produces better
decision-making skills, improved project management, and increased
performance while lowering overall turnover.
Why should you Attend
Many of us came to our roles and positions in life/work with great
technical training and experience. It is what made us promotable into
leadership roles. But many of us are not very good coaches, we think we
are because we are good at doing the work, but it turns out we are not
very good teachers, instructors, coaches.
Not our fault, just not our innate gift. Like some people are not the
best at performing the tasks or even playing the game (think of any
physical activity) but are terrific coaches! Why or How does that happen
and make them successful in that arena?
Most outstanding coaches have 4 talents:
The understanding of the technical requirements, terrific observational
skills, communication and relationship building capabilities. And they
can link those skills and abilities with the mental and emotional
requirements for improving individual and team performance. Do they hold
people accountable - Yes!
If you want to improve your team’s performance or that of individuals,
even yourself, then perhaps you will find a missing piece in this
webinar or an area where as a “Coach” you too can improve. Coaches need
