Coaching skills for managers

Coaching to stretch, support and inspire

Pinstripes & Beads™ offers a range of training programmes that develop a coaching approach in managers and leaders. Participants are introduced to the central principles of coaching and mentoring and helped to build an effective approach to getting the best out of their people.

Our coaching is designed around three core building blocks:

Stretch: Holding the individual to a ‘higher bar’ – challenging them to think and discover answers for themselves.

Support: Providing a framework of support that is based on listening and questioning, free from personal judgement.

Inspire: Tapping into the internal values and resources of the individual, resulting in higher levels of motivation.
