Management Coaching and Mentoring Programme For Effective Leaders
Our Management Coaching and Mentoring Programme for Effective Leaders is a Chartered Management Institute (CMI) Level 5 Award. It’s crucial education for practising managers and individuals aspiring to a more senior role.
With most of our clients, we find a coaching and mentoring culture is the missing piece to Continuous Improvement (CI). Many professionals think they’re already good coaches and mentors. But they are skills that your team must learn and master.
​
A coaching and mentoring culture enables every person to feel visible, know their worth, and understand that their efforts are recognised. Within a very short period, you’ll see a positive shift in behaviour and engagement, reduced conflicts, and more collaboration to solve problems and drive improvements.
​
Through this course, your managers will transform into effective leaders who can make significant and lasting enhancements to your business. They’ll learn the principles and practices of providing coaching and mentoring and how these affect the development of a high-performance culture.
