The Benefits to Your Participants and Your Organization
From Leadership Through Coaching, your participants and your organization
will gain:

     ·New Leadership Skills. Your managers, supervisors, and team leaders will
     develop the skills they need for today's global challenges and constant
     changes, and will learn to develop leadership skills among their teammates.

     ·New Ways of Thinking. Focusing on goals and vision to move from "putting
     out fires" to innovation and success, Leadership Through Coaching frees
     participants' thinking process from the limitations of a problem-centered,
     risk-averse focus.


Major Workshop Features

     ·A Customized Program.  Through the use of pre-workshop questionnaires
     and/or diagnostic interviews with key people from your organization,
     Communication Designs will tailor Leadership Through Coaching to your
     organization's vision and cultural characteristics.

     ·Coaching Practice. Each workshop participant practices coaching skills
     within the workshop group, and plans for the specific application of these
     skills to his/her daily responsibilities.
