Internal coaching accreditations and leveraging internal expertise the answer to productivity decline

The effects of COVID disruptions continue to be felt as workers are asked to return to a changed office environment.  This is particularly relevant for early career employees who missed out on key business experiences in their first 2-3 years.  These same employees will soon be asked to step-up into more senior roles as organisations right size and leverage automation, including AI.

An effective way to address these gaps is to leverage internal experts who understand the business and turn around the trajectory of younger workers departing, instead creating a more adaptable and tech savvy cohort of workers who are comfortable with change.      With recent employee data confirming that workers are concerned that they are not receiving enough internal development and training, organisations will need to leverage their internal people effectively to address these gaps.  

The best strategy to efficiently boost management capability and create a successful leadership and management cohort of technical staff is to upskill your people in internal coaching.  Accrediting internal staff as coaching facilitators and delivering actionable training in core change leadership behaviours develops persuasive communication, strategic awareness, project management and understanding people dynamics.
