How Closely Related are Business Coaching and Management Training?
Although the topics of business coaching and management training are two distinct issues, the two often go hand-in-hand when it comes to the development of either staff members or yourself. Whilst many people choose one or the other when they wish to improve the skills and effectiveness of themselves or their employees, combining the two can produce truly impressive results over a remarkably short period of time.
What is the Difference Between Business Coaching and Management Training?
Business Coaching
Business coaching is nearly always performed on a one-on-one basis, and involves a person discussing with a qualified business coach the issues which they are encountering in the workplace and are preventing them from fulfilling their maximum potential. During the business coaching sessions the individual and the coach will not only discuss these issues, but between them will come up with an effective action plan, goals and targets for developing the person over a period of time.
Management Training
Unlike business coaching sessions where no actual new information is taught to a person, management training on the other hand will provide them with information. For managers with some experience this can not only furnish them with new information which they may not have heard before or be aware of, but can also refresh their knowledge pertaining to information which they may have forgotten since their previous management training course. As for new managers who do not have much managerial experience and/or have never attended any management training courses before then attending a course will be invaluable for teaching them information which will prove highly beneficial for fulfilling a role as a manager.
One is Good, Both are Better
So whilst management training will provide information, business coaching will facilitate discussions and action plans regarding its implementation. For those serious about becoming a highly effective manager, utilising a combination of both is highly recommended.
