'Coaching for Peak Performance' transforms managers into successful team coaches who can empower their people to work more effectively together.
The Challenges
People are often promoted to management on the basis of line function success rather than team leadership record. Many managers underestimate the abilities of their team, so the team underperforms. Management courses can provide the skills, but a manager's underlying beliefs and attitudes can sabotage their efforts.
The Solution
Si's 'Coaching for Peak Performance' solution uses focused participation to explore how effective people-managers coach and develop successful teams. Participants are encouraged to question their perceptions and beliefs about individuals, and to structure feedback and expectations in the context of future potential rather than past performance.
