THE IDEA IN BRIEF

Many leaders achieve their current level of success by mentoring, teaching and helping their teams solve problems. They like problem solving and giving advice and believe that this is how others grow and prosper. However, to truly empower others and build future leaders, we need to step away from this approach and step into more of a coaching style of leadership. This in turn allows leaders to scale their own leadership capability and lead larger and more senior teams. This nine-week program is designed to help leaders unleash the potential in their teams and maximise business performance.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The format is designed to be highly interactive, offering both leading edge thinking and practical techniques that can be implemented and practised immediately. A one-hour orientation session is followed by four 2-hour workshops, interspersed with three Peer Coaching Meetings.

The program is capped at 24 participants, but can be run with groups as small as 12. Optional 1:1 coaching is available at an additional cost.

  • Content covered includes:
    • Understanding leadership and the impact of various leadership approaches
    • The underpinning skills of compassion, curiosity, listening, questioning, avoiding assumptions and understanding triggers
    • Trust and boundary setting
    • The perils of giving advice
    • The factors impacting climate and how to use these to lift performance
    • A framework for a productive conversation
    • Receiving, soliciting and providing feedback
  • A Learning Journal is provided, containing all the content with spaces for exercises and reflection.
  • Peer Coaching Meetings (groups of three hosted by a Kemp Street Partners’ coach) are safe spaces in which to reflect, share insights and gain valuable additional perspectives, and help people commit to action.
  • 1:1 meetings with the participant’s leader before and after the program are encouraged to ensure alignment on objectives and support the embedding of new behaviours.
  • Optional additional reading is provided for those interested in a ‘deeper dive’ into the content.
