Course description
If you would like to be able to support a colleague or others through coaching, this course is for you. You would need to coach a colleague or someone else who wishes to be coached, as this is a practical course covering key skills including: questioning, goal-setting collaboratively and encouraging personal and professional growth. This interactive course covers an introduction to coaching and how if differs from mentoring, counselling and training. It explores the role and responsibilities of coaches and how to prepare for coaching sessions. Participants explore how their values, beliefs and attitudes might affect their practice; how to give feedback and how to feed forward. We examine case studies and the use of questioning. We also explore coaching theories and models as well as ethical frameworks. Participants will discuss ways of managing a coaching relationship, how to reflect on our own practice and how to review and end a coaching relationship well.
