REACH – Coaching Performance Excellence

How many people in your organization were promoted into management because they performed well in their non-management role?

It’s a common scenario, yet one that can have an unpredictable outcome.

The best managers are the best “coaches.” Unfortunately, many managers don’t really think of themselves that way. They don’t recognize the tremendous impact good coaching can have on the people they lead, and on coaching’s ability to create “lift” for the entire organization. They haven’t realized that Coaching can be the path to grow, the path to work through performance challenges, and the path to realize maximum productivity from their direct reports.

Coaching involves helping a person to learn as well as teaching them. It requires a belief in the potential of other people. It means engaging in thought-provoking dialog to stimulate a person to think for themselves. It’s done through modeling and guiding, challenging, and encouraging the person being coached. And, it’s not easy.

“REACH - Coaching Performance Excellence” is a highly-interactive 2-day workshop, where people who lead others become ‘students’ of coaching. They learn and practice the skills required to coach their direct reports one-on-one. The skills of:

• Reflective Listening
• Strategic Questioning
• Encouraging, and
• Challenging

Practice activities within the REACH workshop can be tailored to the unique business challenges your organization faces.

Regular use of the skills learned in this workshop make the coach’s job less stressful as coaching becomes a habit. The improved relationships and new ways of thinking have a direct bearing on the workplace, ultimately impacting the company’s growth.

Remember, research concludes that the most important relationship in an organization is the relationship between a leader and his or her direct reports.
