What if: People in your organization were able to get the feedback they needed, when they needed it, to improve themselves and their performance.

For Whom: This course is designed for Senior Executives, Managers, Front-Line Supervisors, and Individual Contributors – anyone who gets work done by, with and through others. Attendees will learn and apply a robust communication toolkit where there is a dual focus on relationships and performance, leading to dramatically more effective coaching.
