Our company’s purpose is coaching for a better tomorrow and how coaching can impact a performance culture. Coaching is the art of facilitating the learning, development and performance of another or group. Coaching is a craft that takes time to refine and be a master. Trayton discusses the positive impact of coaching – not only on an individual level – but for the whole organisation.

Huge amounts of change, both socio-economic and political, have impacted the world of work. Every organisation and leader are on a journey to adapt their values and strategies to align with the new world. In this first episode, we unpick the new world challenges for leaders, understand the terms “power” and “empowerment” in leadership – and the psychological impact this can have on individuals – and then why coaching, rather than managing, is needed as a default management style.
