Why Coaching is a Change Management Tool?

  • Change happens one relationship and one conversation at a time
  • People willingly change when it’s personally meaningful
  • Leadership is inspiring willing followers to share your values and vision, influencing them to fully engage in collaborative mission execution
  • Leadership is a relationship
  • Coaching conversations focus on the coachee’s agenda, beginning with the end in mind, assessing the current state, addressing gaps between current and ideal states, empowering engagement and ownership, designing action plans, and fostering accountability.
