Best Practices in Managerial Coaching

According to The Association for Talent Development, it is reported that: “Although coaching is an ongoing process targeted at employees at all performance levels—including both high achievers and underperformers—it can also be used in the short-term to solve a specific problem. Active participation is required from the employee being coached. Participants will learn how to create an environment that both inspires and supports employee engagement through coaching, identify when coaching is appropriate, and develop ways of communicating in a coaching manner.
