Sustainability Factors:

Conversations come first. We are committed to ensuring this is the right choice for your organization at the right time, and we work to build the relationships that enable us to work together crafting and customizing the right solutions.

At Hudson our commitment is to quality and sustainability. We partner with you to insure the highest quality of teaching and coaching as we provide training of your trainers, as we support them in delivering this program inside your organization, and in helping you to build an internal community of support for this coaching initiative.

Your success is our success. We are committed to doing what it takes to create sustainability. This means working with you to build criteria for selecting your trainers, providing the best train-the-trainer program possible, developing learning aids that support early stages of skill acquisition, and working to support ongoing coach skill development in your trainers.

Developing a community of support inside teams and among trainers is a proven approach for deepening the impact of a coaching initiative.

Approaches to Delivery:

Our expert coach/facilitators are available to conduct the 1-day Spot Coaching for Managers program inside your organization, or you may choose to engage in our train-the-trainer in order to rapidly broaden this coaching approach in your organization and allow your own trainers to deliver the program.

Delivery of the 1-day Spot Coaching training sessions can accommodate a schedule that matches your needs. If you want to deepen coaching skills with a limited number of managers and leaders, this approach makes sense.

Train-the-Trainer for the Spot Coaching Program

If you want to rapidly bring coaching skills to a large number of managers and leaders in your organization, our Train-the-Trainer approach is likely to be your best choice. This approach allows you flexibility in delivery and it contains costs of the program through a licensing arrangement that reduces per person fees substantially.

Our Train-the-Trainer approach consists of 3 days participation for prospective internal trainers that includes attendance at a 1-day session followed by 2 days of leader training.

A Licensing Agreement allows trainers to conduct our 1-day Spot Coaching Approach™ program inside your organization.

Participants:

Managers, emerging leaders and others with supervisory responsibilities

Format:

Spot Coaching Approach™ training includes pre-work, an onsite workshop, and a series of follow-ups to ensure sustainability.
