The purpose of The Coaching Leader™ is to accelerate participants’ performance in the coaching function of their leadership role. The goal is to learn to effectively coach direct reports in all situations, whether to maintain high levels of performance, to shift behaviour when performance is off the rails, or to enable direct reports to think for themselves, maximize their potential and achieve their goals. Participants will gain the confidence and skill required to coach effectively through the use of a practical, behaviour-based tool – the SAGE™ Coaching Model. Participants will develop a coaching plan for one of their direct reports, using their newly acquired skills 
as a SAGE™.
Outcome
