Driving Your Strategic Agenda: Coaching For Transformation Within Your Organisation

The frameworks of LACE and RACSR depict the underlying principles and models of coaching. Here the panellists highlighted the importance of asking the right questions, listening without any agenda or bias, building a trust-based relationship, challenging as well as supporting the coachee, and finally building consensus around the next steps and desired outcomes.

We then touched upon CCL’s Holistic Leadership and their button metamorph, emphasising that a leader can truly unleash their potential only when they are able to bring in a balance between self, career, community and family. A good coaching culture would help enable this.

Key Take Aways

At ChapmanCG the we find that the topic of coaching is always relevant amongst the HR community, and it was inspiring to see the shift from coaching being used for development to a tool that enables the achievement of business goals. While this transformation comes with its obvious challenges due to the human nature of biases and expectations, there are systems and processes available to make the coaching experience more authentic.

Growth stops when we stop learning, and we were happy to learn that having a coaching culture ensures we are constantly evolving. When employees see their leaders coach, and being coached, and when a sense of pride is attached to the coaching culture, that’s when an organisation moves from being an ‘earning organisation’ to a ‘learning organisation’.

It was great to see the exchange of these thoughts and techniques to enable coaching in the organisation from a strategic point of view. We hope everyone found the session engaging and we look forward to hosting more inspiring sessions with The Center for Creative Leadership in the future.
