Your Step works with leaders, managers and teams to help them develop, transform and excel. We do this through coaching.

WHY COACHING?

Research from ILM (City & Guilds Group) 2020 demonstrates that coaching is one of the most powerful learning and development interventions available when it comes to helping individuals improve their performance and unleash their potential. It improves confidence, motivation and creativity across the organisation. The research also demonstrates that organisations that do not use coaching are missing out on a powerful tool for effective organisational change, employee engagement and boosting productivity. This research outlines the return on investment that coaching can bring.

Coaching can help with the following:

WHAT IS COACHING?

We use coaching in the development of high potential managers, professionals and their teams. It is future-facing and goal orientated.

A coach’s role is to support you with specific work challenges. It is not to provide the solution or give advice – what works for one person, may not work for the other – but to challenge you to find and seize opportunities for yourself. In this way, you develop your own problem-solving skills to overcome hurdles.

A coach believes that you have all the tools and resources within you to work towards your goals; they will use a series of questions and techniques to encourage you to achieve these goals in a focused way. They will motivate and support you. They will hold you to account. They will ensure you stay focussed.

A coach provides you with the space to examine your unconscious thought habits and behaviours. They may challenge these – thinking drives behaviour which drives actions which impacts results. If you are not getting the results you want, it would be worth exploring these. They help you take actionable steps to achieve your goals. They will ensure you leave each coaching session with next steps towards meeting your goals. The coaching process is a solution-focused series of conversations.
