SEMINAR OVERVIEW:
Effective coaching is a key method for increasing productivity and profitability in an organization. Recent studies have shown that 85% of the workforce wants holistic coaching so that they can continually improve and grow.
At this seminar, supervisors and managers will learn a systematic process for intrinsically motivating their employees. This five-step coaching process teaches managers to use questions as their most powerful asset. In this program, we will outline a key questioning strategy for each step in the process.
As part of the questioning strategy we discuss checkpoint and closing summaries. These are critical throughout conversations and at the conclusion of each discussion to ensure that both parties are in agreement about both the situation and appropriate next steps.
By using this process, managers will encourage employees to enhance individual performance and increase their contributions to the team.
KEY TAKE-AWAYS:
- Explore how to provide feedback which supports and empowers your employees while building trust and enhancing your relationships
- Learn a 5-Step process for coaching employees including a key questioning strategy for each step in the process; this is essential for objectively guiding employees through the process
- Practice flexing your communications style to coach your employees in a constructive way
- Gain the ability to implement a systematic process to increase the intrinsic motivation of employees
- Support employees to enhance individual performance and increase their contributions to the organization
