This Leadership and Performance Coaching Programme is a highly effective and powerful means to develop your in-house coaching capability. You will benefit from our professionally trained coaches creating a pool of your own skilled people, who will be able to further transform and develop your leaders and managers.

Participants will benefit from learning the principles, theories and skills required for effective coaching, having practiced them under supervision. They will have a toolkit of approaches for sustainable learning and development and have the confidence to transform leaders and managers within the organisation in the pursuit of the wider agenda. This all comes with the Institute of Leadership and Management (ILM) stamp of approval and access to their student resources. For those who wish to pursue this to a higher level, there is the added value of gaining credits that may be used to upgrade to a diploma or other qualification.

Your organisation will benefit from having a pool of skilled and qualified coaches transforming and developing leaders and managers in their personal pursuit of both personal efficiencies, and of the people/projects they lead and manage.

Furthermore, we can help participants develop a sustainable framework for coaching in the organisation beyond the programme.
