During this session Debra will provide some insights into the differences between coaching and mentoring. As a qualified coach and the Chairperson of the Australian Institute of Health and Safety’s (AIHS) Mentoring Program, she has been exploring these differences for some time.

A key skill is being able to bring awareness to what kind of conversation is best in which situation. Debra will offer some hints and tips as to what to listen for that will indicate the type of conversation required in a given situation.
