"I ABSOLUTELY BELIEVE THAT PEOPLE, UNLESS COACHED, NEVER REACH THEIR MAXIMUM CAPABILITIES."
BOB NARDELLI
Coaching Conversations is a 1-day course which is online on a scheduled date for individuals or can be booked by an organisation online or onsite at a time of their choosing. Scheduled online courses take place between 9.00am and 4.30pm with a 1-hour lunch break.
The course provides a perfect introduction to coaching skills for all leaders and managers. It can be delivered to a group either online or onsite. A maximum of 16 delegates is recommended to allow plenty of opportunity for coaching skills practice, interaction, and feedback to take place in breakout groups.
Each cohort also works in a small coach practice group of coach, coachee and observer to work on real-life issues and challenges in a confidential space. The programme is delivered by an experienced Xenonex executive coach, supported by further experienced coaches whilst working within the smaller groups.
