Effective Coaching Skills for Leaders (Live Online) Reviews

A very insightful session, some overlap with things I've covered before but the soft approach and interest, engaging and understanding between participants made things instinctive

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

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?

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 think the course was well paced, plenty of breaks and really like that we had two hours away from Zoom for self study. I like variation of break outs, group discussion, writing in the chat/jamboard to keep things engaging and I felt all the instructions were clear throughout. Nikki was also an engaging and friendly facilitator. I felt like the training could have been an hour shorter or instead with more personal stories and facilitators sharing of 'best practice' as it started to feel a bit repetitive during the end and some of the questions like the 'what else' could have been explained that it might not fit with every scenario/some guidance on the types of scenarios work best with those questions as I felt people struggled with that exercise.
