Description:
We all recognize that good coaching is an integral part of a winning and productive team — in business this translates directly to improving the bottom line in a way that builds strong partnerships and a culture of support and opportunity. If you believe in the adage that "people are the real source of competitive advantage," then learning how and when to coach your people is one investment with long-term payback that you can't afford not to make. Within a peer group or organizational context, coaching is a critical element to develop trust and enhance the group relationship.
In this program, you will learn what coaches do (coaching skills), how to produce results through coaching (coaching patterns) and intentionally design patterns and environments that positively affect peer group performance (life patterns), including:

Notice to Trainees
WHY WE NEED YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER
Act 192 of the 2008 Vermont Legislature requires employers and other training providers receiving support from the state to provide the social security number of each individual participating in the training to the department of state government supporting the training. The social security number will be used to gather wage information from the Department of Labor's files after you complete training, in order to evaluate the training program.
The Departments of Labor and Economic Development must provide information on the employment outcomes of training programs to the Legislature. Your information will be combined with information of other trainees to ensure your privacy and the privacy of your employer. The law requires the departments to keep your information confidential.
