About the Course
Modern organizations now expect leaders not only to deliver results but also to develop people. This shift is imperative as the workforce evolves with growing expectations for personal development and career growth. Coaching and mentoring bridge the gap between management and growth by helping employees gain confidence, clarity, and capability.

Participants will learn how to conduct meaningful coaching conversations, design mentoring relationships, provide feedback that motivates, and create development plans that align personal growth with organizational goals. The training is hands-on, interactive, and rooted in real workplace challenges. It focuses on the 'how' of coaching: listening deeply, questioning effectively, and building trust that inspires accountability and progress.
