Course description
Coaching can enhance skills, increase engagement, and improve people performance within your organisation.
Increasing in popularity over the last few years, the benefits of coaching frameworks and skills, such as listening and questioning, are clear. Coaching builds greater self-awareness, empowers, and serves as a key personal development tool.
This programme will develop your coaching skills and boost your confidence. You'll learn how to adopt a coaching approach that brings out the best in the people around you.
The course provides you with the theory and fundamentals of coaching and gives you the opportunity to practice with your peers during the course. The practices you learn will not only improve the performance of an individual, but also contribute to the wider performance of the organisation as a whole.
All CIPD Learning courses will automatically provide you with access to the CIPD Learning Hub, our online learning platform, for 24 months.
The hub will house your course content, as well as useful resources, tools, and a community of professionals that you can tap into to support your learning and continual development.
