Overview
Managing and motivating an increasingly diverse workforce, along with a blend of virtual, hybrid and distributed teams, poses unique challenges. To meet these challenges and positively influence employee performance, today’s managers must shift from traditional management approaches to more of a coaching role. When managers provide guidance and support through coaching, teams are more high-performing, collaborative, and engaged.
This session will highlight practical tips and resources to help you and your managers build the kind of coaching capabilities needed for team and organizational success.
