ILM LEVEL 5 QUALIFICATIONS IN COACHING & MENTORING
People who are performing to the best of their abilities can have a hugely positive impact throughout a department or company, not to mention on the balance sheet. Just imagine if your departments and teams were led by highly motivated people who were committed to getting the best out of people who report to them, who in turn were committed to better performance. Workforce selection therefore, has to identify the smart, quick thinkers who can create the compelling and visionary sense of purpose to take the organisation forward, be innovative and future focused, open to different possibilities and decisive when faced with ambiguity. Coaching and mentoring has a part to play in supporting these individuals by providing the skills, knowledge and behaviours required to create the environment for success. Developing a coaching culture requires a cadre of coaches and mentors with the knowledge and experience to support your organisations vision. Developing those people is important and can be expensive if you get it wrong. Bruck Payne Associates offer a unique ILM5 coaching and mentoring programme. We work with individuals on a 1:1 basis to develop their skills and confidence. As the programme progresses we introduce them to ‘coaching a stranger’, allocating someone from an opposite industry for them to try out their skills. On one of the workshops we introduce them to our mental health specialist to cover the basics of wellbeing and use of appropriate tools for the coach to use. On other occasions we involve them in coaching supervision days where they mix with coaches from other industries to ensure best practice is shared and CPD adhered to. Our tutors are all accredited ILM5/7 coaches and mentors, many with the additional benefit of being psychometric practitioners, counsellors and very experienced board level executive coaches. All our tutors are from the world of work and not just academics.
