High potential, fast-tracking managers work on goal setting for self and others, team leadership, relationship building, and other skills needed for their professional development.
Coaching for development can help uncover blind spots, strengthen leadership skills, and change behaviors that can directly impact business results. It can also help to support learning, reinforce training and development programs by helping the learner apply the knowledge and skills acquired back to their jobs.
This is also a great coaching process for new managers. New managers often struggling in their new role from doing the work to getting other people do the work. The lack of knowledge and skills can be significant: high turnover, low morale, subpar productivity, and more. It’s because most don’t receive the essential management skills coaching or training to succeed.
This three- or six-month experience supports new leaders and high potentials as they step into expanded roles. On-going dialogue with a Coach ensures the Coachee focuses on the right things, has a confidential partner for thinking through challenges and makes the best use of their skills, while actively developing weaker areas.
Coaching for development is a process that develops the persons’ skill set and mind set to perform, manage, and lead effectively.
Coaching is shown to have a powerful, positive impact on self-confidence, wellness, and work performance. When an employee receives professional coaching, their team members also benefit from the mentoring, leadership development, and coaching culture the employee brings back into the organization.
