Presented by: Laura Steigleman, MBA

The ATD Capability Model provides a robust list of capabilities required for today’s learning and organizational professionals. March’s meeting will focus on Coaching, which is under the area of Developing Professional Capability.

Coaching is a discipline and practice that is an essential capability for any talent development professional and it has the power to catalyze breakthroughs to enhance individual, team, and organizational performance. Coaching is an interactive process that helps individuals develop more rapidly toward a preferred future state, produce results, set goals, take action, make better decisions, and capitalize on their natural strengths. Coaching requires using global listening, asking powerful questions, strengthening conversations, and creating action plans.

Join our speaker, Laura Steigelman, as she shares some of her best practices for Coaching for Success including Key Characteristics of a Successful Coach, a 5 Step Coaching Process and a Coaching Job Aid for determining the root cause of why a behavior is or isn’t happening, and then identifying the right solution to close the gap.

In addition, she will provide each participant that attends, a complimentary Everything DiSC (ED) Workplace Assessment after the session has ended. In this personalized, 20-page profile, you will receive feedback that will help you strengthen key coaching characteristics including collaboration, communication and conflict management. You will also gain insight and strategies for working more effectively with your employees, including in your coaching conversations.
