RATIONALE
As a team leader, the more skilled you are at sharing your experience, expertise and insights through coaching and mentoring, the easier it is to build a positive learning and sharing culture at your workplace. This will attract and keep quality people within your organisation in a great team environment.
Coaching and Mentoring skill has become the most essential skills that a leader must have. The techniques of coaching and mentoring provide the emotional nourishment and energy needed to transform team members and carry forward the best traditions of an organisation. An entire value system is communicated throughout an organisation by those who mentor others. Mentoring is an effective vehicle for driving your strategy and gaining a competitive edge. Good mentoring is about developing one’s independence. We pay particular attention to the skills of non-directive mentoring where mentors enable mentees to think more for themselves and learn to solve their own problem. Alongside coaching, mentoring is used by organisations to develop the skills of people and for succession planning. Therefore, this course will help its participants develop effectively in their roles as coaches, mentors, counsellors and effective motivators in their various organisations.
