Initial Training of Coaches

Inservice training of coaches:-
Change Partners' coaches do not fit a specific mould or stereotype. Some have been extremely successful in running large organisations; others are professionals from various disciplines. They have three factors in common. Firstly, whatever their background, each one will have overcome many challenges en route to success. Secondly, each one is a superb listener - that's important, because listening is critical to understanding the reality of the client's situation. Thirdly, each one will have undergone extensive induction and preparation prior to beginning a coaching assignment with Change Partners. All have chosen to make coaching their calling.

To ensure our own learning continues in step with the dynamic business and social environment of South Africa, we strive to attract coaches from diverse backgrounds. The profiles posted on our web site reflect our success to date.

The training and ongoing development of our coaches is paramount to our business. We have a full time partner with an extensive background in training and executive development, who inducts potential coaches to coach the "Change Partners" way. In-house "learning" sessions for all coaches occur weekly. These are opportunities for the whole coaching team to learn through introduction to new techniques, and by sharing personal successes and failures.
