Workshop Overview

This workshop is designed for people who want to develop their skills to successfully identify the need for coaching conversations in an organization, and to practice using a simple, structured model to have those coaching conversations meaningfully and effectively, in a variety of developmental contexts (e.g., one-on-one coaching, performance feedback, sensitive managerial conversations, career planning, etc.)

The Leadership Essentials: Coaching workshop will consist of the following elements: 

  • Introduction to coaching
  • Orientation to a flexible model to use when moving from “catch-up” conversation to coaching conversation
  • Structured practice using the model, with debrief
  • Facilitated discussion about putting coaching into practice

The workshop will give you a taste of our two unique graduate and executive education coaching certificate paths.
