Coaching Explained
Coaching in a business setting is a dynamic process that provides support, structure,
focus and motivation to assist people in clarifying and achieving their personal and business goals.
Coaching empowers people to think and act creatively, resourcefully
and purposefully, to overcome habitual limitations and to fulfil their potential.
Coaching is an exceptionally effective tool for management development because:
- It operates at many levels simultaneously – resolving the inevitable tensions between personal task, team and corporate objectives.
- It operates in the now, addressing real issues and current concerns.
- It is always action orientated, delivering outcomes which reinforce learning, leading to long term behavioural change.
- It improves performance by utilising and developing personal strengths and responsibility, leading to greater job satisfaction.
- It unleashes the untapped creative potential within the workforce, and develops the learning capacity of managers and teams, promoting a learning culture within the organisation.
