Developing a Coaching Mindset

Introduction

Workplaces are evolving, and people want more than just instructions – they want support, space to grow, and leaders who actually listen. This workshop is all about flipping the script on traditional management and embracing a coaching mindset. Instead of telling people what to do, we’ll explore how to ask better questions, spark meaningful conversations, and help others tap into their own strengths.

Through hands-on activities and honest reflection, you’ll pick up practical tools that build trust, encourage growth, and make work a better place for everyone.

This workshop is ideal for:

  • Team leaders, managers, and supervisors looking to enhance their leadership style

  • HR professionals and learning & development specialists

  • Coaches and mentors seeking to deepen their practice

  • Anyone who wants to foster a culture of growth, trust, and continuous improvement in their organisation

No prior coaching experience is required – just a willingness to learn and grow.
