MASTERCLASS
Manager as Coach
Managing people in the traditional sense just doesn’t seem to work any more. Carrot and stick might have worked 20 or 30 years ago but not in the 21st century. The issue of control is often critical and suspending one’s values and opinions when listening to someone else can be challenging.
Successful coaching is geared towards helping people to think and perform for themselves rather than reining them in. We will look at the difference between management and coaching conversations and a toolkit of preparation, skills and strategy that will help you to develop your coaching approach and integrate it into your day to day practice and leadership
culture.
