Coaching conversations for managers

Great coaching conversations are essential for personal and business performance, and managers have a key role to play. Here’s how VTT helped a global engineering organisation improve their coaching conversations. 

  • Situation:An engagement survey highlighted the need for improved coaching by managers.
  • Challenge:Need for consistency throughout the organisation.
  • Solution:VTT designed a 3-hour virtual Coaching Conversations workshop.
  • Result:160+ managers have attended the workshop with overwhelmingly positive feedback.

If your people aren’t getting the feedback and coaching they need, they won’t perform at their best. The global engineering organisation, headquartered in the UK, realised this. They sent out an employee engagement survey and found that their colleagues were eager for better coaching from their managers. 

They got in touch with us here at VTT to deliver a program across India, the US, and EMEA to improve their coaching conversations.
