Managers’ Mindsets – Coaching Essentials

As managers we’re constantly navigating fast-paced environments and so creating space for open conversations and building trust with our teams is essential.

This practical workshop gives new and experienced managers a chance to focus on developing some coaching skills that can help team members grow, build confidence, and create a stronger, more collaborative team culture. Whether you’re new to using coaching skills or looking to fine-tune your approach, we’ll learn techniques that can be applied immediately.

As our careers and challenges evolve, the value of strong coaching skills only grows. By dedicating time to enhance these skills, you’re not just helping your team thrive—you’re also taking important steps in your own development as a manager.

Together, in this practical session, we will:

• Understand the coaching mindset, the fundamentals of coaching and how it differs from mentoring, counselling, and training
• Discover the benefits of coaching and how to seamlessly transition from managing to coaching
• Learn what components make for effective coaching
• Enhance our active listening and questioning techniques through practical exercises
• Explore proven coaching models like GROW to structure our manager as coach conversations
