October 28—November 01 \2024: Barcelona
Introduction
We often hear record-breaking athletes say; I owe it to my coach; That’s because however talented they are, athletes need a coach to improve their performance and competitiveness. Likewise, Companies and Organisations need to create a culture where coaching and feedback occur as a routine part of each day. Towards this strategic end.
This innovative and motivating course, explains a structured approach to coaching which is effective whether a professional is working with a new recruit or seeking improvement from an experienced player.
Being less of a boss and more of a coach is fundamental to modern management.

Good coaching builds trust and collaborative climate between professional and team.
