DESCRIPTION
When you’re busy, it can be hard to find the time to coach your employees. But if you don’t help your team members enhance their own skills and abilities, then they’ll never improve their performance. As a result, they’ll wind coming to you for answers, rather than being able to develop their own solutions. This can lead to a productivity and creativity drain on both you and your organization. It can also lead to higher turnover due to lack of engagement.
However, by coaching your employees, you can keep employees engaged and help them realize peak performance, boosting their own careers and your company’s bottom line in the process. Consider these statistics: Engaged employees are 87% less likely to leave their jobs than their disengaged counterparts (Corporate Leadership Council). And organizations with highly engaged employees achieve twice the annual net income of organizations whose employees lag behind in engagement (Kenexa, an IBM company).
In this course, you’ll learn about the concept of coaching and how to identify your own strengths and weaknesses as a coach. You’ll also learn how to provide consistent feedback, counseling and mentoring, as well as support your employees along the path toward meeting their career goals. You’ll be given the tools to become an effective coaching leader and help employees get and stay engaged, as well as grow and achieve optimal performance.
