Coaching Senior Leaders: Masterful Coaching of Senior Leaders and Leadership Teams On-Site Training

New content focusing on coaching leaders as a critical strategy for developing talent and leadership.

Course Description/Agenda

Research studies by Linkage and others consistently demonstrate that the global competition for talent has been inadequately addressed, that it requires a strategic approach, and that coaching leaders is one of the most powerful strategies for developing leadership and ensuring the purposeful development of talent.

Coaching leaders at the senior level can produce significant business results. At the leadership level, the stakes are high, and gaining entry requires that the coaching is grounded on a proven systematic methodology-and this is what you learn in Linkage's Coaching Senior Leaders program.

This intensive immersion program provides advanced strategies to develop a coaching relationship that is geared to positively impact the effectiveness of leaders and leadership teams. In Coaching Senior Leaders, learn from Dr. Pam Brill, senior vice president of Learning Solutions, and Andrew Goodman, executive vice president of Talent Management at Linkage. Together they have over three decades of experience coaching high-level leaders.
