Effective Coaching Skills for Leaders (Live Online) Reviews

course was really good and met all my expectations - only thing i would say was we were a small group and by the end of the day had run out of different experiences to use in practices with each other

There was lots of practice which really helped me

A great overview of the theory and some coaching techniques with time to put them into practice too.

At times it felt unclear about which stage of the ABC method we were working on, which was a bit confusing. One suggestion would be to emphasise this more, especially prior trying it out in breakout rooms. I really liked that we had plenty of time to practice the techniques and to observe others doing so, but in a private space (so it didn't feel like we were being evaluated!)

I found the breaks quite short for the length of the sessions- I'd have preferred a slightly shorter lunch and then 10 or 15 minutes for the breaks. It was a long time to be sitting. Some other strategies were mentioned (constellation activity) are these included in the slides when we get them? could there be a resource pack which includes more strategies to use?

Useful content, well delivered. Thinking about examples to use is difficult during the course, so having 2-3 before attending would have helped.

BRILLIANT. Totally worth a day's time in a busy schedule.

Overall I thought the training was excellent and I am coming away with lots of takeaways and things to reflect on. It was beneficial to spend time in break-out groups practicing the techniques, as this enabled us to immediately put into action what we had learnt and then share any dificulties. If we had more time, I would have liked to go more in depth and receive direct/ tailored feedback from the faciliator.

Really positive and enjoyable experience - learnt so much and plenty to take away and apply. The best training course I've done and it makes me reflect on where my skills/interest might lie - if coaching is something I would like to do more of.

I didn't have any assumptions coming into the course, but I felt that the leader of the course really helped arm me with some great tools to help me coach and be a better manager for my team. I feel more confident that I can approach issues and queries in a better way, and I am really looking forward to trying some of these skills out in my 1-2-1s with my team members.
