Support and guidance make for a large part of getting the most out of a workforce as it gives them the confidence to continue performing at their best. ICF Coaching and training is the most effective way to help unlock the full potential of an individual and to push the overall efficiency of a team to its limits. It works towards not only helping the workforce become a great team but also helps employees on an individual level. 

In fact, a survey by the Institute of Coaching revealed that 70% of individuals who received coaching reported improvement in their work efficiency, professional relationships, and communication skills. Taking it all a notch above is the concept of performance coaching. What is performance coaching and how should you choose your partner for training? This article explores the qualities that you must look for in your performance coaching provider. Let’s begin by understanding what exactly performance coaching means.

What Is Performance Coaching?

Performance coaching is defined as a series of techniques that are dedicated to bringing incremental and continuous improvement to an individual’s work. It helps facilitate the development of an individual by building a one-on-one relationship that moves at a steady and consistent pace. Performance coaching is based around a feedback mechanism where the responses exchanged between a coach and student drives the learning and development process.

What to Look For In a Performance Coaching Provider

  • Diagnosis Before Prescription

Whenever a professional encounters a problem, the right response is always to understand the problem before spouting solutions. Your partner must follow this principle before suggesting the use of any training methods. The aim is to understand what a business needs before suggesting a potential solution that can be customised to their needs.

  • Going Beyond Learning

Learning is the basis of developing a great team, and eventually, a successful business. Your partner must go beyond the simplistic need for learning to deliver cutting edge customised training, transformation and strategic alignment interventions. They need to deliver solutions that suit all types, sizes, and scales of organisations. 

  • Scalability and Cost-Effectiveness

Cost-effective and scalable solutions are a must to facilitate learning in organisations so they develop the skills they want in their employees. Through the use of the right tools and training program, your partner can help you work towards the creation of a scalable, sustainable, and trackable learning environment for your organisation. This brings us to:

  • Tracking and Measurement

Training is an investment, as opposed to the otherwise prevalent belief that it is a cost for the business. We understand that every investment has a return attached to it, which is why businesses need to track the impact of training. Your training partner must help your business make consistent and measurable training programs that are built around Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) relevant to your business.

Performance coaching has been a game-changer for organisations around the world as it helps build their workforce towards better efficiency on an individual level. Make note of these factors as you consider hiring the right training partner for your business needs.
