Presentation with Impact Five-day Elite Course
Master the Ability to Coach and Mentor - Help your team to exceed their own expectations!
Enjoyed the day and your delivery style was spot on for this course. Nice to be in a group that wasn't filled with 'cynical coppers' and the diversity of the group really made the day not only interesting to me but beneficial in my own development. Rae Jiggins - British Transport Police
A very different approach to training to those I've been used to and for me it was much better than the traditional classroom-based learning I've done in the past. Jeremy Elson - Burton Safes

Our coaching and mentoring training course is for people wishing to develop their coaching or mentoring skills at any level of business.
We aim to give you clear insight and understanding of the dynamics that happen between people when they work one-to-one.
The temptation when coaching or mentoring someone is to provide solutions to problems or difficulties.
We will help you find ways to hand the issues back and encourage them to find the solutions for themselves.
We tailor all our courses to reflect the needs of the delegates on the day.
We will include many of the exercises listed below, and any additional material that the trainers feel is relevant.
Increasingly people are being asked to use coaching skills when managing people.
You can't tell people what you want them to do and expect they'll do it.
You need to coach to get the best out of each individual.
These tools and techniques will be useful whether you are asking someone to take on a new task:
Following up when someone hasn't done what you've askedWorking with a colleague who may be at odds with your approachHandling conflict between colleagues or between you and someone elseEnsuring goals are metHelping and supporting when someone is struggling or having a difficult time
In short, learning to use coaching skills requires a bit of practice but even in the short term will produce excellent results.
Discussion on the advantages of coaching/mentoring as a tool in business:
What do you think it is?Why have it?Are there any rules around coaching/mentoring?What are the pluses?The pitfalls?What are you looking to achieve with a coaching/mentoring programme?Discussion on 'You as a Role Model'
Some suggested roles of a mentor are:
Participants will further develop these roles, as they are perceived within your company.
What roles do they currently play and where do they need to develop?
Relationships that provide the backbone to a good coaching/mentoring relationship are built on trust and mutual cooperation.
Wanting the mentee to succeed requires a generous and positive spirit.
Success depends on this attitude being present.
Catch people doing things right and praise and acknowledge their actions and achievements
Giving and receiving feedback is a skill that can make or break the relationship.
Agreements need to be established as to confidentiality within the relationship.
Establishing these agreements from the start will help establish a relationship of trust and facilitate the mentoring process for both parties.
These exercises help with a whole variety of issues:
What is it feeding?
Feedback often says more about the person giving the feedback than the person receiving it.
We will tend to notice things that are not working in accordance with our own belief system and our idea of what is 'right' or 'wrong.'
Awareness of what you are feeding and why is the key to being an effective mentor.
There will now be a series of pairs exercises with a variety of tools and techniques people can use as mentors/coaches.
Not all of these will be done, only those that are determined to be useful for the group.
An exercise to develop a crucial skill in a mentoring relationship: how to spot when you have overstepped the mentee's boundaries and they haven't told you.
An advanced listening skill that is crucial to give mentor's objectivity in being able to separate emotion from fact.
A tool to calm down difficult confrontations.
This skill is great for moving things forward.
Understanding the difference in using You, I or We statements in order to get away from blame and making someone wrong.
This helps people get to a place where mutual solution-finding is created.
Everyone has a different style of communicating.
Some we find easy to work with, some difficult.
This exercise looks at the styles people find most difficult to work with and what they can do to make it easier for themselves
The temptation when mentoring someone is often to provide the solution to their problem or difficulty.
This looks at ways to hand the issue back to the person and help them find the solution for themselves.
Hints and tips to provide guidelines and best practise for mentors.
