Leadership Coaching
Are your managers getting too involved in the day to day routine?
You have unhappy – de-motivated teams and the staff feel
micro-managed by managers whose predominant style is to leap
in to rescue the situation.
You know coaching is important but there just isn’t enough time
to change the style of working.
Does this sound all too familiar?
You want managers to take responsibility for their subordinates; they need
to drive up performance by empowering and developing the people who
work for them. They are moving up the talent-pipeline but don’t understand
how to bridge the gap from managing self to managing others and then to
managing managers.
You know where you want to get to….But you don’t know how to get there.
 Your organisation wants to create a leadership culture
rather than a management culture; Coaching is seen to
be a key element of this. You want to move from being
a directive organisation to an engaged one that will
free up untapped capability, so that people feel more
fulfilled. Perhaps you can’t do much about work-life
balance but your vision is that people can feel more
empowered in the work-place. You want your managers
to believe in Coaching as a core leadership competence.

enthusiastic team. I have grown personally and seen my team flourish
through team and personal coaching sessions - the best 100 days ever!”

Our style models “best coaching practice”.
“I highly recommend ChangeMaker to any manager wanting to develop practical
coaching skills that really work in a business environment. Learning in a very
experiential way really helped me to develop my coaching skills and a good
number of the concepts I continue to use – which in my experience is unusual
for a training programme!. I regularly coach others within the business and
apply the skills I have learnt to help them move forward. The follow-up day
really helped to refresh and embed my learning still further.”
