Coaching for High Performance™

An advanced workforce training that brings coaching skills to your organization

Our workshop equips your team with the skills they need to initiate strong coaching relationships and engage in productive dialogue about concerns, efforts and improvements, which may be required within the organization.

Favoring a highly interactive approach, our workshop focuses on how to hone communication skills to bring out the best in people, especially around questions of safety.

Our Workshop Structure

By imparting and embedding effective coaching skills in your organization, we can change the safety behaviors and decision making of your team and deliver a measured increase in care for your people, plant and processes. We do this by offering human-centered solutions such as “safety champions”, skilled at coaching and supporting the members of their team. We know that humans are at the heart of change, not processes and procedures. The key to our approach is understanding and managing human behavior in a way that accommodates its inherent unpredictability and error.
