| Developing Your People for Excellent Results |
| Coaching is one of those words that buzzes around businesses: however, it is rarely represented correctly and at best, given lip service in terms of putting it into practice. |
| Many businesses are founded on an autocratic hierarchy, which tells its workers what to do, rather than growing the individual talents of its employees for the benefit of the customers and its profits. |
| Coaching other people is a very satisfying and rewarding task as it enables people to create change through learning. It helps people to be more, do more, achieve more and above all contribute more. |
| This manual will seek to put right the misconceptions about coaching and equip you with the skills to truly develop others and gain satisfaction from doing so. |
| It can be read and used as a book, a self-learning tool, or a reference guide. It can be used by individuals to increase their skills and knowledge, trainers to help produce training sessions or by managers for meetings and staff training. It is a mixture of information, practical exercises, self analysis questionnaires and case studies. |
