Coaching is a structured conversation between a coach and a counterpart that results in fresh insights and tangible outcomes determined by the counterpart themselves. This involves working through a process: setting their own goals; reflecting on the status quo in order to determine their aspirational gap; identifying options that can bridge that gap, and deciding on a clear course of action. These conversations can happen informally over the in unplanned interactions or within a defined and planned session. Polykala’s coaching training is informed by our formal education and accreditation with the Institute for Executive Coaching and Leadership (IECL). We combine the IECL’s coaching framework with the Adaptive Leadership and Immunity to Change approaches to ensure that there is sufficient focus on the systemic and interpersonal resistances to change, our aversion to loss and the ability to link personal goals to broader objectives. Like all of our workshops, our coaching training maximises practise to build competency. Participants will leave this session with new skills to empower their colleagues and staff members through the power of listening and curiosity.
