..... because when coaching is successfully implemented in an organisation it:
Aligns individual performance with team and organisational objectives
Encourages individuals to stretch beyond what they thought possible and maximise and leverage their absolute best
Develops a mentoring, caring, culture which is cascaded by leaders and their teams
Helps individuals take ownership and responsibility for their own behaviours and actions
Coaches are catalysts for transformation and change.
Introducing Coaching for Change Online
Coaching for Change is a new approach to coaching, which is exceptional value because it is online and web based. Coaching for Change can be used by an individual with just online support or with the support of a professional coach, manager, mentor or friend. The system makes use of innovative online personal learning maps that guide the user on a self-facilitated coaching journey.
The coaching journey is aligned closely to the GROW model that is used widely by coaches around the world. The personal learning maps enable the user to explore and get clarity around their own aspirations, analyse their opportunities, plan for the future and get into action. The process provides a common approach to encourage and grow a coaching culture across an organisation.
The online support system provides facilities for the user to record their insights, assess and track their progress, and collaborate with others on the journey. For example, your coach can access the information you wish to share to prepare for coaching sessions and can send coaching prompts and even receive feedback via mobile phone.
