How to Succeed as a Manager

Dave-Stitt_Coach_for_Results

I will teach you how to incorporate basic coaching techniques into your management style.

Based on the International Coaching Federation’s competencies, these techniques can be used right away to get tangible results.

When managers coach, they enable their people to think for themselves, which means they grow in confidence and capability, and they start really enjoying their work.

Testimonials from Coach for Results participants

Really fantastic insights all the way. Dave really understands the industry and the issues in industry leadership. His experience is clear to see. Easy and practical ways to apply a coaching management style to day-to-day life. Easy to understand snippets of information, but snippets with big thinking and big impacts within it. Assignments which provided opportunity to apply the lessons and concepts but also space to reflect upon how to improve. I would absolutely recommend this course to anyone in a leadership role, whether you are new or experienced. I truly believe this approach will open up much more favourable results for individuals, for projects, businesses and the industry!!

Important that more people in the industry recognise that a coaching style of leadership is more relevant and likely to get results than the old style. I have enjoyed this course very much. These are very practical lessons I can use every day and I will be conscious of using a coaching style of management with others

It's helped me to understand the motivations and reasoning behind my work and other people's work. How to encourage them to think things through and work it out for themselves. This helps develop them as well. It's also helped me to prepare for these conversations so we are all in the right frame of mind and place. Helping to identify wins and celebrating them with the team is really important too as well and will help build morale and cohesion. I intend to use the systems from this course to help establish a healthy and positive company culture and to take on staff who understand and get it.

What people say about the book

I keep this book on my desk and I keep going back to it. It is so perfectly accessible and helpful and I would recommend it to anyone seeking to develop and hone leadership skills.

Alex Young MCIOB 
Senior Project Manager at Scottish Water 

This is the book I wish I’d read when I moved into my first management role. Although the book initially focuses on the construction industry and the need for a shift in culture from ‘command and control’, the clear explanation of WHY and HOW to manage with a coaching style can educate and empower managers in any type of organisation.

There are not many management books that you can read in about 4 to 6 hours that pack such a ‘knowledge’ punch.

The coaching leadership style is well documented and has probably not passed by any MBA or well-read manager or consultant. But Dave’s writing is to the point, backed up with pertinent examples, and just enough academic reference to be assured the bridge between the two is secure.

Construction should adopt a coaching style of management to make every person count

15th May 2023

Building Magazine published one of my articles back in April, it seems to have struck a chord on LinkedIn with more likes and re-posts than usual. In it I confront the “skills shortage” – a perennial problem, much talked about ever since I joined the industry in 1976. Lots has changed since then; we now have collaborative contracts, BIM and MMC but the default management style remains. Changing that will change everything, here’s how to get started

Coaching Steve

Steve wanted to work up a strategy for getting his people on board. He mapped out where he thought they were at, and initially decided Nathan was up for the chop. Though it didn’t turn out that way.

This is coaching Steve – an illustration of what coaching is and what coaching isn’t. Includes some insights into leadership and getting people on board and a useful mapping tool.

We are smart cookies. We can adjust our behaviours to big effect. Though constantly busy, operating at pace, on autopilot our dominant style can become our default style. And when the leaders all unwittingly adopt the same style the effect can be chilling. Once aware, however, you and your team can make some fairly simple adjustments to warm things up.
