About this course

The environment that employees operate in is changing daily, creating stress and ambiguity – making it difficult to coping. Through empathy, active listening and open-ended questions, a coach can help employees out of a fight or flight response when they are faced with these stressful situations so that they can be calmer and more focused, resulting in higher performance.

Coaches will also gain important feedback skills, create a safe environment for exploration and innovation, and create a culture of accountability. This course focuses on the links between neuroscience and coaching, how a coach can coax employees out of their comfort zones and how to become great team players, ultimately leading to a more productive and sustainable organisation.

This course is based on neuroscience and the brain’s response to stressful situations, giving learners a deeper understanding of the process of coaching and practise a specific habit each week that will help them become great coaches in a short timeframe and at an affordable rate

This course is ideal for:
  • This course is for leaders at all levels who would like to increase their coaching skills to create a safe environment where employees can increase their performance
