Coaching Skills For Leaders
Twenty-first-century leaders can no longer be expected to have all the answers or simply to exercise command-and-control imperatives. More and more leaders are adding coaching skills to their leadership style in order to facilitate their teams to further improve performance, decision making and their ability to solve problems effectively. This robust model of leadership significantly boosts the engagement, commitment and energy of everyone involved and heightens efficiency and productivity.
