Effective coaching has been shown to improve performance by 84% and make staff twice as likely to stay with their employer.

Coaching is ‘unlocking a person’s potential to maximise their own performance’.

If as a Team Leader or Manager your team turns to you to solve every problem they come across, then you’re really doing their job for them, not coaching.

This course will teach you exactly how and when to coach, with proven tools and models to aid your learning, leaving you confident to put your own coaching style into practice.

Course Description

Great managers are nearly always great mentors, helping their teams to improve themselves and their skills. Coaching shouldn’t mean doing someone’s job for them or solving their problems.

It’s about giving them the tools and confidence to do their job to a high level and empowering them to overcome hurdles on their own.

In this course we will look at the difference between the directive approach of just telling someone what to do, and the non-directive approach of allowing them to practice and develop their skills.

We will look at different coaching behaviours and styles – such as the GROW and ABIDE coaching models – so you can understand which ones work best for you and your teams.

The benefits to your business of developing great coaching skills in Team Leaders and Managers is almost incalculable. Previous attendee organisations report seeing boosts to productivity, innovation, and employee engagement.

Learning outcomes

  • Identify and agree the benefits of Coaching vs a Directive approach.
  • Agree the beliefs and principles required when coaching your team members.
  • Explore strategies that will help you develop your listening skills to a deep level.
  • Practise the application of the GROW Coaching Model to structure an effective coaching conversation and achieve great outcomes.
  • Use a variety of coaching tools, such as Performance Wheel, and Learning Styles to enhance your coaching sessions.
  • Apply effective strategies to coach individuals with limiting/negative beliefs which impact performance.
  • Apply your coaching skills to help individuals who feel ‘stuck’ or lack motivation.
  • Use the ‘ABIDE’ Coaching Model, created by your facilitator (Jacqui Turner,) to help your team members achieve better and smarter outcomes.

Benefits to your business

In today’s tight job market everyone needs to keep hold of staff and keep them motivated and engaged. That task usually falls to Team Leaders and line managers, who might be great at organising and running operations, but can they mentor and inspire?

Teaching your frontline managers how to coach properly unlocks:

  • 84% is how much coaching plus training can help improve performance by.
  • 24% new starters are more likely to leave their company if it doesn’t have a coaching culture.
  • Retention – Millennials who are coached are twice as likely to stay with their employer for more than 5 years.
  • Better results – Develop coaching techniques to help individuals overcome limiting beliefs and achieve smarter outcomes.

As part of the course all attendees will complete a Learning Styles Questionnaire to understand how to tailor their coaching style to suit their own personality as well as those of their team.

How Learning Styles can impact your coaching style and the results you achieve.

You will have completed a learning styles questionnaire prior to the session. Therefore, during this session, you will explore your results and discuss how your preferred learning style(s) can impact your coaching style.

The use of a Performance Wheel to coach individuals across a range of performance levels.

Coaching individuals who feel ‘stuck’ and lack motivation.

There are times when you may notice a team member is lacking motivation and thereby not taking positive steps to achieve better outcomes. This part of the workshop will introduce you to ‘Pleasure and Pain’ theory and a coaching activity to help individuals find the motivation to move forward.

Abide Coaching Model

You will be introduced to the ‘Abide’ model, as an alternative to ‘GROW’. This model has been created by Jacqui Turner, to effectively coach contact centre teams and help them overcome barriers such as a ‘limiting’ belief about what they are capable of achieving.
