How to Create a Coaching Culture – A Practical Introduction: HR Fundamentals

How to Create a Coaching Culture is a practical guide to developing an effective and efficient coaching culture within an organization. It demonstrates how to empower a workforce to achieve higher performance and greater business results with a strategy closely aligned to an organization's objectives. Using a combination of practical tools, assessments, scenarios and case studies from best practice, it provides guidance for planning, pitching, and building a scheme. It also offers a complete framework for evaluating benefits and measuring return on investment.

This fully updated 2nd edition of How to Create a Coaching Culture demonstrates how a coaching culture should be closely aligned with broader business concerns, including bottom line results, productivity and agility in the VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous) environment. It shows how to link productivity and growth, how to adopt principles that naturally encourage coaching and engagement, how to develop autonomous teams, how to develop tools that foster flexibility, and how to assess organizational readiness for change. Online resources include a series of downloadable tools and templates to use in practice, including a diagnostic tool to check 'coaching culture health' and a corresponding report, development plan and monitoring templates, training course assessment forms, and more.
