Leader as Coach

Use coaching skills for sustainable success at an individual and organisational level.

The GIBS Leader as Coach course will equip you with professionally aligned coaching skills that can be easefully embedded in your current managerial style. Leader as Coach means developing high-performing and motivated teams for sustainable and impactful business results.

As a leader, you want your organisational success to be built from team collaboration. You want to be an inclusive leader that is approachable, accountable and self-aware. It is possible to achieve high levels of performance as a human-centric and empathetic leader. It requires something different.

The power of coaching offers a new way of leading individuals for collective change, improved accountability, innovative thinking and increased agility, resulting in improved relationships and results.
