High-Impact Coaching
Building Individual and Organizational Capacity

Overview
To excel in today's tumultuous business climate, organizations must create a rate of learning that is equal to or greater than the rate of change going on around them. Coaching is the critical leadership skill that provides the foundation to develop this needed organizational learning environment.

Traditionally, coaching has been thought of as an activity between a manager and employees. Many organizations are now acknowledging the need for coaching in all directions, including laterally (peer-to-peer) and upward (employee to manager). The 360° coaching skills taught in High-Impact Coaching provide the critical organizational competency required to support this need for ongoing organizational-wide learning. As resources are becoming more constrained, organizational learning is becoming one of the few remaining sustainable resources to provide a competitive advantage.

This hands-on program is designed to be an interactive learning experience. Participants learn the practical coaching skills needed to help others explore what's possible and see beyond where they are-to where they can be.
