Seminar Description

Great coaches have one thing in common - they expect exceptional performance from all those they coach. Through their "Great Expectations," they deliberately see others at their highest potential and are able to identify talents and strengths that others often cannot see in themselves. Effective coaching requires leaders to establish meaningful relationships in which they can engage in uniquely positive, candid and demanding conversations aimed at producing significant performance improvements. This seminar incorporates the very best practices employed by professional coaches and draws upon our extensive knowledge of experiential leadership development. Taught through a series of lectures, interactive exercises and practices, workshop participants will be guided through The Leader As Coach model and learn how to immediately coach for high performance within their organizations.
