Research on leadership learning supports the notion that coaching by a supervisor makes the difference in permanent performance change and in implementation and retention of newly learned behaviors. This course focuses on learning techniques to ensure this performance change occurs. This blended-learning course, required for all Leadership Academy participants, is composed of two ILT sessions. The first is an extension to the learning obtained through the CBL, consisting of additional knowledge and activities designed to foster full understanding of the coaching process. The second ILT session provides an opportunity for the participants to reflect on their experiences engaging coaching with their staff.
The session will be held Friday, February 26 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Professional Development and Training Office, Dominion Parking Garage, Suite 155. For more information, contact 305-243‐3090 or 305-284‐5110.
