For many years, costly coaching programs were reserved for senior executives and emerging leaders. However, in recent years, a new trend has surfaced as more organizations recognize the intangible and monetary benefit of coaching.  Organizations now offer coaching beyond the executive suite. The difference is that these new coaching programs and services are provided by internal coaches: individuals who may not be certified in coaching, but are trained in a set of coaching skills to support a specific business need and produce monetary business impact.

Attend this session and learn how one organization achieved positive ROI by utilizing internal coaches to support the transfer of learning to doing.

This webinar will include:
 

• Internal Coaching: What is it and why is it important today?
• Case study: Reinventing the follow-up: A Business Case for Supporting New Hires After They Leave Class
• Three things you can begin today
