Description:
Coaching is a multi-billion pound industry. Few organizations have been
untouched by it with most committing sizable budgets, resource and time to
it. However, coaching is expensive and the outcomes of this investment must
increasingly be justified. Organizations must make choices about how they
will implement coaching, direct their focus and resources in the way which
will have most impact, and how to approach this task. In Managing
Coaching at Work the authors provide a complete road map for delivering
coaching in any organization. Providing practical guidance on every aspect of
coaching, including: when to use coaching, sourcing options, evaluation and
sustaining coaching. It serves as an indispensable reference for any HR
professional or manager looking to bring coaching into their organization or
to maximize the potential of existing coaching.
A practical approach for determining whether, what
and how to implement workplace coaching
Develop, source and maximise the use of coaching to
meet your organization’s strategic objectives
Create a compelling business case for continuing
coaching and measuring the results
