PEER COACHING

Peer-to-peer coaching is a valuable leadership tool for both personal and team leadership development. It helps at various organizational levels become more accountable for their personal leadership development, while developing coaching and communication skills that make them more effective leaders of others in the organization. The participants work with a team of peers to support individual leadership development goals; share lessons learned in leadership and management skill improvement; brainstorm new approaches to workplace challenges; and identify breakthrough solutions to leadership and management challenges.

 

The program begins with a training course that outlines a six-step coaching process model designed to help them develop themselves and others to drive superior performance. Throughout the training session, participants reflect on what they are learning about themselves as coaches so they may progress toward building effective coaching behaviors and skills and are able to overcome challenges encountered during the coaching process.
