Workplace Coaching

What is 'coaching' all about?

• It involves two people working together, one-to one
• It provides feedback on a person's strengths and weaknesses
• It is results focused and aims to address specific issues
• It aims to enhance performance and improve a person's skills / skill base
• It can be both short term and long term, depending on what the goals are
• It is essentially a non-directive form of development, where the responsibility for change and action is left with the person receiving the coaching
• It works on both organisational and individual goals
• It is time-bounded
• It is a highly skilled activity
• It invariably involves personal issues, but the emphasis is on work performance
