About the Course
Modern organizations demand leaders who can do more than just delegate; they require practitioners who can facilitate deep learning and navigate complex interpersonal dynamics. This course addresses the critical need for evidence-based coaching and mentoring by providing a systematic toolkit for professional intervention. You will learn to demonstrate five core domain capabilities: establishing psychological safety, conducting diagnostic assessments using the Johari Window, facilitating goal-setting through the GROW model, delivering constructive feedback via the SBI (Situation-Behavior-Impact) method, and measuring the ROI of developmental engagements. We reference the 70-20-10 learning model to ensure your coaching and mentoring efforts align with how professionals actually acquire and apply new skills in the workplace.
The curriculum transitions from theoretical foundations to intensive hands-on practice, turning scattered interpersonal skills into a structured system for performance improvement. You will learn to apply the CLEAR (Contracting, Listening, Exploring, Action, Review) coaching model, design mentoring action plans, utilize the Kolb Experiential Learning Cycle for reflection, and navigate the ethical boundaries of professional relationships. This course is designed for professionals who must deliver results under pressure, acknowledging constraints such as limited time for development, remote team fragmentation, and the need for rapid upskilling. You will be introduced to AI-assisted coaching tools and digital platforms that support long-term mentoring relationships, ensuring your practice remains relevant in a technology-enabled workforce.
