ARE YOU COACHING FOR A BETTER WORKPLACE?

Overview

Organizational coaching is all about performance improvement — that of the individual and collectively of the organization itself.

That improvement can come through increasing personal skills through training (coaching being one sort), and it can come through process improvements. The critical issue has always been in identifying real need.

Coaching inside the organization used to be a matter of privilege and size. Big organizations were the early adopters of the practice. They were the first to see the value and, of course, they could afford it.

Today, the value is recognized by organizations of all sizes.

Coaches — whether they are internal, external or are a function of OD, HR or Training — can gain advantage by creating value. That value comes from implementing an effective diagnostic process to uncover need and then following with interventions that fill the uncovered ‘need gaps’.

The PEOPLE Model™ provides for that process in a simple and affordable way.

What You Gain

Are you a business coach / consultant / mentor (internal or external) looking for innovative tools and resources to assist your organization, current clients or to gain new ones?

Are you struggling to identify the gaps of skills, resources or development opportunities within your organization or your client’s?

Are you looking for ways to link all of your development activities to the goals and objectives of the organization?

Are you looking for new and creative ways to engage?

The PEOPLE Academy resources include Business Performance and Personal Development coaching resources which provide good practice, templates and advice on how to manage people effectively. Diagnostics are key to uncovering need.

The PEOPLE Model™ Framework is a unique and deeply effective guided conversation towards the organization’s goal. This facilitated, highly interactive process (which can also be run as a workshop) gives you powerful insight into the organization’s needs while creating powerful employee engagement in the power to produce.

Throughout the process, you'll facilitate conversations in:

Performance:  What does good performance look like for you, now and in the future?

Efficacy: Do you have the skills and knowledge required to achieve the performance you desire, and if so, do you know how to apply your skills and knowledge effectively?

Ownership: Do you and others own what you do? Is everyone clear about what they are accountable for? Does everyone know what their personal responsibilities are? Does everyone respond to the needs of others?

Possibilities: What else could be achieved with the resources, equipment, people and skills you have?

Linkage: Does everything everyone does have a link to the achievement of the goals you or your organization is looking to achieve?

Evidence: How do you measure effectiveness? When do you know when you have achieved your goals? What evidence do you have that what you currently do is giving you what you require?

The questions that are raised by you and your team as you work through The PEOPLE Model™ Framework will help identify blockages and stimulate the creative energy and answers required to get the movement you need to break through.

Tools and resources can only add to the value you bring to your work — along with the 500-page manual contained in your tool kit.
