Core Coaching

CMI Level 3 in Coaching and Mentoring

At Learning to Inspire we believe we are in a new era in employment history, an era that demands we create cultures in which our people thrive, innovate and create, and that organisations should invite our people to be more of who they are and bring that more into their work. To create cultures that invite people to be more we need practitioners who are skilled in releasing the potential of the people they lead, so that EACH and EVERY ONE of them give and contribute more of who they are. This programme is about developing such practitioners.

Who is it for?

This programme is those in the workplace who are either new to coaching or for those who have had no formal coach training. You may be a team leader or middle manager or an individual in the workplace who aspires to use a more coaching style in their everyday interactions.

During the programme you will get…

A broad understanding of the purpose and context of coaching and about giving you the basic tools to become an inspirational coach. This programme is jam packed with the stuff of inspirational coaching – it is interactive and guaranteed to teach you as much about yourself as about how to coach!

During the two days we will seek to answer the following questions:

  • What is coaching and mentoring?
  • What are the qualities of an inspiring workplace coach?
  • Why should we invest in workplace coaching
  • What barriers might we encounter to coaching and how can we overcome them?
  • What cutting edge tools will I need to make me an inspiring coach?

To answer the questions above you will explore cutting edge theories from the field of NLP, and Accelerated Learning as well as gleaning gems from leaders in the field of coaching.
