Coaching and Mentoring
Duration: 2 Days
Time: 8:30am-4:00pm
Unleash your potential with our transformative Coaching and Mentoring course! Dive into the fascinating world of coaching, a process that sparks learning, development, and performance enhancement. As quoted by Eric Parsloe, a successful coach is one who understands the process and can adapt various styles, skills, and techniques to the context.
Moreover, mentoring, as defined by Clutterbuck and Megginson, is a more informal, offline assistance provided by one person to another, aiding in significant transitions in knowledge, work, or thinking. It’s traditionally longer-term and more informal compared to coaching.
Our course is designed to help you understand and appreciate the nuances between coaching and mentoring. You will get hands-on experience with the various skills required to be an effective coach and mentor. By the end of the course, you’ll be equipped to develop, implement, monitor, and correct coaching plans. Embark on this journey with us to enhance your coaching and mentoring abilities!
