3D: Coaching for Excellence trains you to have powerful and transforming conversations
What's the one thing which, would make the biggest difference in your organisation today?
It 's likely to be around communication. In order to communicate effectively, we need to be able to listen and say what we hear and therefore have really powerful conversations.
Coaching for Excellence is
a 4-5 day programme to train managers and leaders to have challenging and transformational conversations with others
a course where you will learn to use coaching in your job - simply and effectively
a safe and life changing event
a programme which aims to start you on a journey to mastery. Simply.
Management, Leadership, Spiritual Care, Mentoring, Performance Management and Supervision all contain coaching skills. Coaching does not contain managing, leading, spiritual care, mentoring, performance management or supervision. The more effectively you coach, the more effective you will also be in these other roles.
Outcome: You will be able to create a thinking space for other people and empower your team to work independently. You'll know you've got there because it will be:
effortless
you'll speak less
others will think more
you'll be having coaching style conversations during 1-1s and on the stairs
the culture of your organisation will change as people begin to take responsibility for their own actions.
So simple you will be see what you're aiming for and believe you can do it. It will take time and practice to learn to be this simple.
Based on the rigorous core coaching competencies of the International Coach Federation and adult learning theory based on Kolb's Learning Cycle. We use 2 trainers and ensure a maximum number of 21 participants so that you can get as much individual feedback as possible.
Interactive, experiential and fun
“I ...had a fantastic comfortable learning space. I don’t think I have been as challenged in my learning in years I enjoyed the whole process now I will have to trust it and give it my best shot.” Martine Masson, Bedfordshire and Luton Partnership Trust
"I just wanted to say thank you for the great skills we are learning on Coaching for Excellence and the coaching we have received.
I was put on the course by my manager who really had no idea what it was about ... but I thought I will make the most of it and the skills I am learning. Now I have had my face to face and telephone coaching which were fantastic. ..The coaching skills are so useful and can be used in all walks of life which I am discovering both at work and at home. I have coached my youngest brother to start running, got my family to realise that as things have always been done that way it doesn’t mean they can’t change and I am trying to enthuse my colleagues to enjoy their work and work as a team.
Thanks to you all and I look forward to the next two days." Participant June 2008

We believe in ongoing coaching supervision and professional development for people learning to use reflective practice. Recognising that not all organisations have the resources to provide this internally, we offer attendees on all our courses free access to group supervision. This is currently by monthly teleconference calls. We will be developing drop ins in areas where we work regularly.
Or are you spending thousands of pounds on coaching with no significant organisational benefit? Benchmarking and supervision will support you and your coaches to work for the benefit of the individuals AND the organisation.
