Is it just me, or does everyone seem to be busier than ever before ? The demand for regional and area managers to deliver better results with fewer resources seems unprecedented.

But why should your personal development suffer ?

Now there is a way for you to get everything done AND learn & grow to become an even better leader. Time efficient, discreet learning while-you-work.

10 reasons why developing your leadership skills ‘while-you-work’ is better than attending a training course:

1)  There’s no fake role play – the learning and improvement comes from you actually doing your job, which means you’re emotionally attached to the learning experience from the start

2)  There’s no huge backlog of work to wade through, like there would have been if you’d attended a training course miles away from your patch, because you’re going about your day-job

3)  No-one has to know – although your coach will observe you in action, the coaching discussions are all private, so it’s a discreet way of learning and improving – your image and credibility remain intact leaving your peers wondering how your results are improving

4)  When the learning comes to you, it is Lower Cost – taking travel, food, accommodation into account (not-to-mention the cost on your personal life from the extra hours you’ll have to put in to recover your work backlog from being out of the business on a course for a couple of days)

5)  There’s no development centre pressure, competing with other managers, dealing with the politics and the egos

6)  Personalised and tailored coaching – you decide what you want to achieve – totally bespoke development for your exact needs

7)  Effective use of your time – many regional or area managers travel around their patch. We use this travel time for coaching discussions and to prepare for your next meeting / interaction

8)  Our coach introduces the perfect theory, concept or model at the right moment for you. In contrast, training courses throw all of the models at you and let you filter the useful wheat from the chaff

9)  Operational flexibility – you want to change your itinerary on the day ? No problem – your coach will unlock transformational learning & development from whatever experiences your day throws at you

10) We help the ‘whole you’ – not just the ‘work you’ – your life is a combination of relationships, lifestyle, family and work so we’re able help the whole ‘you’ – not just the work ‘you’ - your coach is a Wellbeing Specialist, Life Coach and L&D Specialist with 20 years’ experience of leading people to achieve operational excellence
