What was done?

We created a program that included workshops with integrated one-on-one coaching sessions. The workshops were designed to be experiential with the participants gaining access to tools and models on person effectiveness, team dynamics, coaching and mentoring skills (based on the Co-Active Coaching Model).

The timing of the workshop and coaching delivery created a good environment for real, sustainable learning and possibility to make changes in behavior.
