The value of agile, coached interventions lies not only in the quality of learning from the discussion sessions but in the continuity of its effects.
When participants are engaged in their learning and encouraged to apply new techniques and outcomes as co-creators, they become confident Agents of Change back in the office, building morale and implementing and testing necessary processes amongst their peers and direct reports.
The increased motivation is a catalyst for change.
New routines and habits are more likely to be embedded into day-to-day team practices. Management skill toolkits are expanded along with core emotional intelligence approaches for the benefit of all.
New hacks, new ways of working discussed during the sessions are carried back into meetings with direct reports, performance reviews, and project planning.
Participants experience a tangible increase in self-esteem, the belief that they can affect positive change and lead with increased agility.
This psychological shift offers increased confidence, proactive behaviour, resilience, and creative innovation.
This new regional L&D model includes value-added opportunities, such as introduction to coaching skills, and practice time to learn techniques to facilitate emotionally intelligent coaching conversations.
With this fresh and imperative leadership skill many participants become influential role-models with their colleagues and direct reports.
This amplifies the professional developmental impact of the initial training intervention, spreading the session learning outcomes across other departments for an obviously visible and immediate return on investment.
As more individuals gain the tools and confidence to experiment and support others, the organisation becomes more responsive to change and better positioned to achieve its strategic goals.
So, in summary, during these practical workshops this new High Performing team are given the headspace to make their own discussions and choose their preferred solution to implement next week. They now own their learning outcomes for real impact.
