Coaching and Mentoring for Managers

Why book this course?

Coaching and mentoring can be a unique and challenging remit. The desire to help team members improve can be tempered by concerns about jeopardising relationships, and creating unnecessary friction. Coaches and mentors must develop a light touch, providing guidance and support without lecturing or overstepping their mark.

Our Coaching and Mentoring for Managers course is for managers who wish to develop their coaching or mentoring skills at any level within an organisation. It aims to give participants a clear insight and understanding into the dynamics of mentorship, and how to develop skills and confidence while maintaining personal boundaries.

What will I get out of the training?

When either coaching or mentoring, there is always the temptation to provide the solutions to the issue being discussed.  Through this course, we will help you find ways to help and encourage the person to find the solution themselves, improving your ability to listen and provide effective feedback.
