WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF COACHING?
Talent within an organisation is a precious commodity and a major investment.
The business case for nurturing that talent through coaching is well established.
A 2011 Learning and Talent Development survey by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development found that organisations rated coaching by external consultants as the most effective learning and development practice for leaders.
The peer-based, experiential approach used by Oasis empowers people to own their ongoing self-development and builds their capacity to anticipate their future needs.
Our work is underpinned by the belief that everyone has the resources to become more effective in their life and work.
By working with a coach you can develop your skills and understanding, reducing your reliance on external support.
Benefits of coaching for you as an individual
For individuals in leadership roles, finding the time and the right environment to consider the bigger issues, make significant transitions or develop new ways of working is a constant challenge.
Committing to coaching ensures that you:
benefit from dedicated time, a confidential setting and the support of an experienced practitioner to get to the heart of even the most complex professional and personal issues
make time for reflection and feedback
develop yourself in your approach to leadership, learning and life
achieve new clarity, see issues in a fresh way and change limiting perceptions
rehearse possible options and consider consequences
have the strategies to work with your own processes, insights, challenges and intuition.
Benefits of coaching for you as an organisation
As well as improving individual performance, coaching:
addresses the challenges facing the most visible and influential people in the organisation
refreshes mindsets, fostering creativity and innovation
increases the quality of engagement with key issues, freeing people to ‘think out loud’ about factors that are affecting their performance and proactively address them
enables working at depth, to accelerate learning
identifies key organisational trends, conflicts and questions
aligns organisational values and strategic thinking to practice
emphasises practical application by providing support over time, embedding the learning in ‘live’ issues faced by the organisation
helps the organisation realise its investment in other training or development processes
actively helps key people re-focus and re-engage in times of stress or organisational change, maintaining optimum performance and contributing to senior-level retention.
