Coaching – today’s critical leadership skill

Old-school management styles of ‘direct and control’ are no longer appropriate in
guiding people, teams and organisations through the constant change and complexity
that is ubiquitous in today’s workplace. In contrast, Leader-coaches engage their people in
ways that enable flexible, intelligent responses to shifting opportunities and challenges.
Leader-coaches are catalysts that generate a thinking culture in organisations.

What our clients have to say

“A truly life changing experience.”

“This programme has blown my mind with what it is possible to draw out of people when you just have the right conversations.”

“Besides facilitating the personal growth of the leaders who have participated in the programme, the skills and framework learnt during the programme has helped to shift con-versations with individuals and teams where it has been applied.”

“Coach training has helped us as a team to see the best in each other and work with (in-stead of against) each other. We value and appreciate that everyone brings a different view and perspective, this is what we need, united in vision and strengthened by expanded, new thinking. This is the only way we will find effective approaches to complex problems”
