The Power of Coaching Mindsets and Skillsets for Transformation

A Joint Program of AAS and JCD Advisors

Cost: $5,500 – this is a discounted rate extended to AAS members

 

Why participate?

 

This program will support participants in becoming more adept with coaching skillsets and more importantly employing coaching mindsets for effectiveness across the breadth of their “roles” – leader, teacher, mentor, partner, human.  This is not about training coaches but rather building coaching capacity in individuals to grow the adaptability needed in increasingly complex systems. This program goes beyond traditional transactional approaches to activate next-level practices and perspectives – transforming self, team, organization – shaping cultures that bring forth more thriving and less striving.

Participants Can Expect

  • Personal growth – including increased self-awareness, enhanced sense of personal agency and capability, and increased potential for contributing positively to their organizational effectiveness through use of coaching mindset and skills.
  • Improved team effectiveness – improved trust, clearer expectation setting, healthy approaches to conflict, enhanced communication skills, and overall increases in engagement and accountability.
  • Healthier organizational culture – a coaching approach to leadership, teaching, mentorship not only changes the interaction dynamics among team members in a healthcare environment, but also extends to improved learning environment, patient experiences and improved care for the communities served.

Curriculum includes the following themes:

  • The Power and Platform for a Coaching Mindset and Coaching Culture
  • Building the Toolkit: Honing Your Coaching Skillset
  • Self-Awareness and Self-Management: Strengthening Mindset Shifts
  • Common Leadership/Organizational Challenges: Benefits of a Coaching Approach
