This workshop with inspirational speaker, John Shackleton, is for leaders and managers at all levels and it covers the fundamentals of coaching staff to higher levels of performance. It shows that the approach used by international sports coaches to inspire their athletes is much more appropriate in today’s business environment than the traditional business coaching model.
A sports coach understands that their athletes will always know more about the task they perform every day than the coach does. That is why a top level sports coach will never “tell” their charges what to do unless specifically asked. Most managers find this approach difficult to follow because the traditional manager/subordinate structure suggests that they are supposed to be the expert and therefore they should be training their staff in what to do.
The truth is that we all learn from our own experience and often have to go through successes and failures ourselves before we can fully understand a new concept. A good manager encourages us to create our own path whilst ensuring it fits into the company’s strategies and targets.
