Coaching & Communicating for Performance is a highly interactive program that provides supervisors and managers the opportunity to build skills that will enable them to share expectations and set objectives for employees, provide constructive feedback, more effectively engage in learning conversations, and coaching opportunities.

This program is for individuals in a management or supervisory position and consists of four one-day workshops and learning project work in small groups. Prior to the first session, participants will complete the confidential online Strengths Deployment Inventory. Between sessions 1 and 2, participants will have a private, confidential debrief of their results and coaching meeting with a facilitator.

Session 3 – Communicating with Clarity

Instructor: Meghan Kirwin, Kirwin Group

Excellent communication skills are essential for good performance management. If a leader is able to express their ideas clearly, the employees will know what is asked of them. Communication is used in the entire performance planning, assessment and development cycle, from setting and sharing expectations to providing feedback and recognizing employees for their successful achievements. It is critical, therefore, to establish a good connection and to communicate with clarity.

Focus of this session:

  • Connecting with the other’s perspective
  • Reaching agreement and shared understanding through conversation
  • Providing brain-friendly feedback
  • Choosing your communication approach based on your intentions

Cancellation Policy: Due to the costs associated with delivering this program we ask that you cancel at least 2 weeks prior to the first session. Failure to do so may result in a cancellation penalty of $50 that will be charged to your department.

To register for the complete program you only need to register for the first session.
