 Everyone these days is talking about “coaching.” But do your employees understand what “coaching” really means? More importantly, do they practice it regularly?

Section two focuses on how to assess alternative coaching methods and determine when and where to coach. Section three tackles how to create the time and opportunity to coach and find opportunities to build relationships. In four, participants will learn how to encourage communication and feedback, develop a long-term monitoring plan and review and adjust as they go.
