This event has already taken place.
Content
This is a two-day workshop on coaching by Dr Robin Lefèbvre (Grow2Excel).
Why?
When do you learn the most? When someone tells you the solution or when someone helps you find your own solution? How can you help your students or researchers to help themselves? When you coach someone, it is with the intent to grow that person, so they are more empowered to become independent. This course aims to grow your personal toolset with a non-directive coaching style, so you can grow your people in turn. Furthermore, the difference between leading, managing, coaching, mentoring are often mixed and unclear when what is the right approach. Coaching is not merely a technique to be wheeled out and rigidly applied in certain prescribed circumstances. It is a way of managing, a way of treating people, a way of thinking, a way of being.
How?
As a leader of others, you have two key tasks, delivering the results of the research/business group and growing your researchers/students to become more effective in delivering the results. Growing others can be done via various directive and non-directive management/coaching techniques. One of the most widely used coaching tools is the T-GROW (Topic - Goal - Reality - Options – What) model. T-GROW is a simple and powerful framework for structuring and conducting coaching sessions that produce immediate results.
