C.O.D.E (C Connecting with the purpose, O: Options, D: Desired outcomes, E: Emphasizing accountability and setting the plan)
What is coaching? Interactions that help individuals being coached to build confidence in creating superior solutions, make well thought out logical decisions and action plans and expand their awareness of the micro and macro environment around them.
Why coaching?
INVESTING FOR SUCCESS:
Why executives should implement coaching skills
for organizational progress and long-term success.
Businesses today are under tremendous pressure to become more effective amidst rapid increases in global competition. If an organization desires to progress in this extremely competitive environment, leaders will need to devote more energy and resources to creating teams and building positive communication with committed employees. Managers will need to transform into leaders and coaches instead of mere authority figures. Engaging employees in professional development activities is the key to influencing, motivating, and recognizing those who will contribute and cooperate with their leaders to the benefit of the entire organization. This change in management style–and overhaul of the interaction managers typically have with employees–can have a remarkable, positive influence on team-member and bottom line business performance.
So before we start what are the clear benefits to an organization by implementing coaching into their existing corporate culture?
Benefits:
- Gives purpose and new meaning to work
- Employees are more committed and engaged
- Increased productivity: All the known drivers of productivity can be increased through the leaders coaching.
- Strengthen culture in the workplace by creating a feeling of belonging and community.
- Enhance relationships between supervisor and employee
- Positive mindsets all round

- Heightened creativity

Just to get the coaching flow happening we have created a 3 hour coaching café session.
What is Coaching Café?
Coaching Café Conversations are an intentional way to create a living network of conversation around questions that matter. A Café Conversation is a creative process for leading collaborative dialogue, sharing knowledge and creating possibilities for action in groups of all sizes.
The challenges of life in the 21st Century require us to find new ways to access the wisdom and intelligence inherent in groups both small and large. The need for collaboration, insight and coordinated action has never been greater. Café Conversations are one way that communities, businesses, governments, and people from all walks of life are using to create a common purpose, share knowledge, make more intelligent decisions, and call forth life-affirming action together.
The methodology of the Coaching Café is simple: The participants are broken up into tables of four in an ambient setting and initiate conversations around questions that are important to them. Participants move round to other tables leaving a host at each table who shares their previous group’s conversation, adding new questions from other participants. A the end of the 3 to 4 rounds emerging themes, insights and learning is captured on a flipchart creating a collective intelligence of the group.
The facilitator’s job is to create the platform for discussion, encourage and guide the participants and debrief the participants on the conclusions found from the activity to provide meaningful observations. Our purpose is to show the value of coaching, from the intelligence gathered from the group as a whole and not as specific individuals.
In Coaching Café, the formulation of powerful questions is a fundamental art and skill. Questions like “What’s important to you about this situation, and why do you care?” and “What are we not seeing (or talking about) that is vital to our progress?” can open up new possibilities and energy.
The seven design principles of Coaching Café:
- Set the context
- Create hospitable space
- Explore questions that matter
- Encourage everyone’s contribution
- Cross-pollinate and connect diverse perspectives
- Listen together for patterns, insights, and deeper questions
- Harvest and share collective discoveries
