As a conversation approach and development tool, coaching is a highly effective option for everyone – not just the executive suite. Professional coaches are expensive, so how can large organisations give all of their employees the chance to be coached and for coaching conversations to be the norm?
In this episode of The Mind Tools L&D Podcast, Gemma is joined by Mina Papakonstantinou, Manager in the Leadership development team at Deloitte and team mate Claire Gibson to discuss upskilling internal coaches at scale.
We talked about:
· the benefits of creating a coaching culture
· designing and facilitating a coaching skills programme for thousands
· measuring and evaluating a coaching programme.
In what I learnt this week, Gemma talked about oathing stones – a wedding ceremony ritual. You can read about it and other options: humanism.scot/ceremonies-blog/wedding-ceremony-rituals/
Claire found out about how money is made. Check out this really funky piece on it here: refinery29.com/stories/how-stuff-is-made-money/
