Sessions Overview
- David Pardey - Where does coaching fit into an organisation’s leadership and management development strategy and where should it fit?
Three years’ of research by ILM has identified a critical role for coaching as a vital tool for ‘high road’ learning transfer – enabling leaders and managers to apply their knowledge and skill in new contexts and to perform new tasks. This research (which also highlighted the importance of robust diagnostic tools in effective leadership and management development), combined with ILM’s ground-breaking research in 2011 into the incidence of coaching in large organisations, provides a clear and coherent message on what coaching can do to help leaders and managers go from good to great.
- Jim Knight - INSTRUCTIONAL COACHING. Helping coachees solve problems and achieve their goals by sharing proven practices.
IC helps people achieve their goals through the use of evidence-based practices. In schools this refers to implementing effective teaching practices. In the business world, ICs might be providing support for customer service practices, leadership skills, or any other professional practice that business leaders might want to see implemented in their organization. It will have its applications in the sports, health and social worlds too. In IC It is important for coachees to have a clear picture of reality. When coachees have a clear understanding of current reality, they are much more likely to embrace it. However, if they don't have a clear picture of reality, coachees may be precontemplative about change. i.e. they don’t necessarily see their present position as a problem/issue which needs attention.
- Christian van Nieuwerburgh - Coaching for Mental Toughness: an integrated approach.
"Coaching for mental toughness” can be a productive and rewarding activity. How is it different from more traditional forms of coaching? What makes “coaching for mental toughness” specific? Christian will propose an adapted version of the well-known GROW coaching model and discuss how non-directive coaching can build self-belief and mental toughness in others. In an age where mental toughness is increasingly a requirement in most professional contexts, a non-directive coaching approach provides us with a way of developing our own mental toughness while supporting others to become more resourceful and resilient.
- Peter Clough & Doug Strycharczyk - Developing Resilience & Mental Toughness with Tools and Techniques.
Where economies change they do so at alarming speeds. In the current climate we are being asked to increase productivity and do more with less resource. We know that the mentally tough adapt better and more quickly to change and challenge and will generally optimise performance – they make the most of their abilities and talents. Mental Toughness is a key aspect of performance in the workplace as it measures how a person deals with stressors, pressure and with challenge. The model explains how people develop resilience and the inner drive to succeed – even in challenging environments.
This Seminar will benefit those from organisations going through periods of change or with an increase in demand and pressure, and everyone who wants to develop greater levels of resilience in the workplace and in individuals.
- Jenny Campbell – Resilience - personal and organisational dimension.
In majority, organisational success comes from a confident coordination between senior and middle tier executives on strategy and operations. Struggles with confidence are often because of individual characteristics rather than a typical skills gap that can be filled via training. This area then, for both senior and middle tier executives is critical.
This Seminar will provide the latest findings on the research carried out to look into the resilience of the top teams. The research explores what makes up personal resilience and how it is built and maintained amongst the top teams, plus its links to organisational resilience.
