Coaching Leaders are focused on bringing out the best in their teams and embedding a coaching mindset throughout their organisation. However, adopting a coaching approach and growing and developing others can be a challenge in the current climate. This programme supports leaders to build their coaching approach so they can help to develop talent and create an empowering environment while still practising self-care. The programme will include the development of peer coaching groups to offer support and practice their coaching techniques on one another as part of the programme. Delivery method: This programme will be delivered online. Each day of the programme will be a combination of live, facilitated sessions with some self-directed learning and reflection activities. This programme is an opportunity to pause and reflect on your leadership. It will help you to strengthen your coaching approach, gaining greater personal insight, different perspectives and increased self-awareness so you can lead and develop others even more effectively. It is also an opportunity to identify how you can build your resilience and practice self-care as busy leaders. Delivered with an interactive approach, you will work with and learn from peers to explore a range of practical concepts and approaches. This programme relies on the group supporting each other to learn and develop and build a community of established leaders.

To gain the ILM Level 5 Coaching and Mentoring qualification, you will complete the following three assignments:

1. Report: Rationale for Coaching and Mentoring 

Unit 1: Understanding the Skills, Principles and Practice of Effective Coaching and Mentoring within an Organisational Context

Your submission date for this is three calendar months from the end of your programme. 

2. Coaching Practice Portfolio

Unit 2: Undertaking Effective Coaching or Mentoring within an Organisational Context

Portfolio of evidence to demonstrate completion of 18 hours of coaching practice
