Course overview
Performance coaching is a form of personal development, which takes place between two people, the coach and the coachee. The coach supports the coachee in identifying and working towards their goals. Performance coaching has been described as "a way of unlocking a person’s potential to maximise their own performance. It’s helping them to learn rather than teaching them.” This course provides the core skills required for successful one-to-one performance coaching.
