Course Outline

Defining Coaching

  • Clarify exactly what coaching is and how it is applied
  • Connect coaching as a discipline to enhancing individual and team performance (or analyzing and correcting under-performance)
  • Understand how shared learning can easily translate into a ‘commitment to action’

Coaching Models

  • Introduction to the GROW model
    • G = Goal: the purpose of the discussion or the changes the individual/team wishes to achieve
    • R = Reality: an honest assessment of the current situation and the necessity for change
    • O = Options: what can be done to achieve that change; what else? Is there anything else?
    • W = Will: is there sufficient desire to see this through, or will one of the other factors – GRO – prevent the achievement of change; how will we measure progress?
  • Examine all necessary factors for:
    • Turning vision into reality
    • Achieving measurable outcomes
    • Making effective decisions
    • Managing change
  • Introduce the House of Change: understanding that sometimes things must get worse before they can get better

Becoming a Successful Coach

  • How should a coach behave?
  • What does a coach do?
  • Understand the importance of maintaining a degree of detachment and only offering individual comments or suggestions at appropriate times
  • Coaching individuals whose day-to-day work we do not fully understand

The Link with Performance Management

  • Setting objectives – understanding what is required
  • Managing against these objectives – understanding what success or shortfall looks like
  • Recognizing (and correcting) under-performance; particularly identifying the causes of under-performance (which may not be related to the individual’s workload)
  • Coaching and feedback: similarities and differences

Coaching in Practice

  • Facilitated coaching sessions – initially in a group setting to allow for targeted feedback; then in coaching pairs to put the discussed models into practice.
