Bringing a Coaching Mindset to Supervision and Leadership

Developing people is a key part of our work as academics, whether as leaders, managers or supervisors. Yet we are rarely trained how to play these roles. Responsibility can weigh heavily to give the right advice and have the answers. Is this the best approach? This course will offer a set of practical conversational techniques that focus on the power of good listening and asking good questions. Such a coaching mindset is much more effective for helping people develop as independent resourceful academics/researchers. It also means you doing less to achieve more.

Abstract

Developing people is a key part of our work as academics, whether as leaders, managers or supervisors. Yet we are rarely trained how to play these roles. Responsibility can weigh heavily to give the right advice and have the answers. Is this the best approach? This course will offer a set of practical conversational techniques that focus on the power of good listening and asking good questions. Such a coaching mindset is much more effective for helping people develop as independent resourceful academics/researchers. It also means you doing less to achieve more.
