The main reason managers don’t succeed is because they were never trained to manage successfully! 🙂 In our experience of building thousands of great managers, we have also discovered that the nuances of this “training” have evolved over the years. Managerial training today needs to take into account our ever evolving world of work and the aspirations of today’s workforce.
Today’s managers are being called on to do more than just assign tasks & manage resources. Managers need to guide, to develop, to coach! We require managers who are skilled in listening, empathizing AND coaching.
Jombay runs a “Manager as Coach” program to set today’s managers up for success by building a Mindset, Skillset & Toolset needed to make a transition from being a manager of tasks to a coach who guides & develops the team. Here are some details:
> Key Themes relevant to what is critical for today’s managers
These include: Emotional Intelligence, Balancing Biases, Psychological Safety, Guided Autonomy, Impactful Communication, Coaching for Performance, Coaching for Development & Giving Constructive Feedback.
> Pre Program Assessments tailored to identify an individual’s propensity for bias and his/her leadership style. Findings are plugged into the development journey for relevant learning.
> Journey based Development Program with Master Classes, Self-paced Digital Learning, Group Coaching & Continuous Engagement.
> Emphasis on Intensive Skill Practice and best practice guides to enable transfer of learning.
> Post Program Assessments including an Assessor Led intervention to understand assimilation and application of learning.
We run this program for many of our customers (e.g. Odessa, Lubrizol, Kotak Mahindra Bank and Software One etc.) where participants found the content relevant, were impacted by the meaningful learning experience and the ability to apply it at work!
