"Life isn't about finding yourself.
Life is about creating yourself."
George Bernard Shaw
Where
does an organisation's competitive advantage rest?
In its ability to quickly develop leadership capability throughout the entire workforce!
The most powerful vehicle available for achieving results and building organisational capability, is Coaching. Coaching helps an organisation to increase the level of contribution made by its employees and, at the same time, helps the individual to grow and develop.
There is much confusion over the true meaning of Coaching.
Is it:
- Telling people what to do?
- Showing them how to do something?
- Being there for them if they need you?
- Helping them to work things out for themselves?
At TS2 our philosophy is simple: A person is a person whether they are in
work or out of it!
There will be times when they need to be told things; times
when they need to see how to do something; times when they just need someone
around and times when it's to their advantage to work it out themselves.
We recognise these differences and tailor our support accordingly. |
TS2's collaborations, with Novations and AMC Mentoring, allows us to offer Talent
Management and Stress Management solutions supported by a Coaching programme designed to offer a holistic approach to improving organisational and individual performance:
Business Performance Coaching - An individual's performance is dependent upon their levels of competency as dictated by the organisation's internal Key Performance Indicators, which will be different for each organisation. Therefore, it is appropriate to recognise these standards, review them and ensure the individual employee is aware of them. It is then necessary to determine current performance levels. Without this it would not be possible to measure the improvement in behaviours and achievements post-coaching. The key, however, is to ascertain an individual's attitudes toward the tasks they are expected to perform. Once these attitudes have been identified then the coaching can be tailored to meet the organisation's and the individual's needs.
Coaching Training - Leaders in organisations, be they first-line managers or senior executives, play a pivotal role in the development of individuals into high-performers. However, all too frequently and due to business expediency, many leaders are not fully equipped to be effective as Coaches. When they understand the fundamental principles of Coaching i.e. building trust, promoting discovery, mirroring reality and delegating, they are in a position to demonstrate their effectiveness by applying these skills. This leads to the freedom that allows them to 'get on with the job of managing'.
Individual Coaching - Whether the need is for an improved attitude to work or assistance in dealing with personal issues, Coaching requires a specific approach tailored to the individual's requirements. As human beings we are all affected by the state of our emotions, which have a major effect on our behaviours. By becoming aware of this link between the mind and the body an individual is better equipped to deal with any negative emotions that are affecting their lives.
The benefits of a Coaching solution:
Effective Business Coaching leads to positive and clear communication, achievement,
recognition and reward. Employees feel supported and have a goal in common
with the organisation, thus allowing the business to be in control of its direction
and performance levels. An individual who has received Coaching in a professional
manner feels valued both in and out of the workplace. They have a clear sense
of their personal direction and recognise where and when to go for support
when they experience the 'down' times in life that we all face occasionally.
They are in control, have a positive attitude and are more active.
TS2 offers Coaching to both organisations and individuals either within or outside of the workplace.

The process never ends until we die and the choices we make are ultimately
