The Manager as Coach and Mentor (Training Extras S.) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Progressive training programmes not only equip managers with basic skills and competencies, but deploy innovative, wide-ranging learning strategies to ensure continuous development. Specifically designed as flexible support material, "Training Extras" provides a simple framework to structure learning. This comprehensive series covers all the crucial skill areas for the first-time manager or supervisor, providing: the key issues in an easy-to-read style; diagrams, models and charts for clarity and quick reference; helpful starting points to build confidence and encourage "hands-on" practice; practical advice and tips based on real-life management issues and examples. This series equips all those responsible for training with a set of useful tools designed to provide maximum flexibility, yet to be fully compatible with other learning resources. The booklets offer reference updates for busy practitioners, as well as study material up to NVQ Level 4, and should become core components on self-development and open-learning programmes. For trainees on formal training courses, the series should function equally effectively as pre-course background reading, as course notes or post-course follow-up material for continuing development. This title describes the principles of coaching and mentoring, and thus enables the reader to assess and develop one's ability to improve the performance of others. It includes straightforward guidance on: the key skills and appropriate coaching styles; conducting effective feedback and progress reviews; establishing one's own competence through a series of simple self-assessments; putting learning theories into practice; drawing up "learning contracts"; using mentoring to encourage and support learning; designing successful development programmes.
