Course Overview

The power of coaching for improving performance is now widely recognised by organisations. As the market becomes more sophisticated, so too have become the needs and demands of business. The coaching community is increasingly challenged to articulate the business benefits of their interventions. This workshop equips participants with the tools to quantify the value of coaching initiatives and in turn, enable organisations to assess the return on their coaching investment. Drawing upon measurement theory and real-world coaching case studies, participants construct their own plan for evaluating coaching initiatives. The workshop brings measurement to life through real-world case studies, and interactive exercises.
