Create a Supportive Environment
"Create a culture where people coach each other all the time as a natural part of meetings, reviews and one to one discussions of all kinds. - Professor David Clutterbuck"
Create an organisational environment which supports coachee’s in their efforts to learn new skills, recognising that their individual development makes them greater assets to the business as they help build a high-performance culture, focused on team development.
Start at the Top
The behaviour and actions of leaders have a strong influence on the behaviour and performance of employees, which is why it’s recommended that they act as role models, practicing what they preach, by engaging in coaching and learning opportunities, sharing their experiences, implementing training and giving regular feedback to create a more engaged workforce.
Encourage Coaching Conversations
The most effective coaching conversations flow in all directions as managers, employees and peers encourage individuals to learn from their experiences by asking open-ended questions and prompting coaching as an opportunity for exploration and growth rather than a means of remedial intervention.
