What is Operational Coaching^®?

Leader as Coach

Programme Overview: This programme is highly pragmatic and is targeted firmly on leveraging coaching to enhance business performance. The programme is 8-10 weeks in duration and includes a 1-day workshop.

Programme Objectives: To provide the leadership team with skills and tools to be able to start to proactively accelerate change, leverage performance from their teams and support the adoption of a coaching culture within their area of influence.

Example quoted results:

• Used more of a coaching style during negotiation of several point of a sales agreement - Saving of €1m-€2m
  
• Coached a team member around licensing administration difficulties with a local authority... managed to stop myself solving the problem and turned the whole thing round so the team member clarified the issues and with some appropriate questioning and clarification suggested a solution to the problem which should also improve business efficiency going forward
  
• Because our Design & Construction Team found the best way to anticipate the works, we haven't had any claims from tenants onboard - Saving overall €300 -€500k
  
• Seen the change in others; they seem more confident in making decisions. as result it gives me more time to take an overview on the business as I'm not as bogged down in fire fighting
  
• Signed lease contracts which ends up in a regular cash income for the firm - coaching brought the deal home!
  
• Helped our Design & Construction Team to finish their works on buildings with tenants on board and helped the tenants to communicate internally in order to avoid any claims or commercial rent reductions

Our Training and Workshop programmes are highly experiential and include a strong degree of coaching content within them i.e. they are not lecture based and the delegates will be expected to actively participate in the day. They are in fact ‘far more than simple workshops’ as they all include sustainability programmes to embed learning post the workshop itself. All workshops are designed to incorporate your specific organisational language, case studies and live examples from within your organisation.

Each Coach/Trainer has been selected for the experience that they can bring to bear supporting our clients to improve their commercial performance, achieve business growth and managing change within their organisations. The breadth of our team alongside our office support services allow our clients to completely outsource coaching programmes of any scale to us which allows us to include many additional benefits and a range of added-value services.
