Coaching and Mentoring Skills

Better conversations. Greater ownership. Stronger performance.

When managers provide every answer, solve every problem and step in at every hurdle, team members can become dependent rather than develop.

This practical, one-day course helps your managers and leaders make coaching and mentoring part of everyday working life.

Participants learn how to ask better questions, share experience without taking over, tackle performance challenges proactively and turn conversations into meaningful action with clear accountability.

The focus is ownership: helping people think for themselves, build confidence and take greater responsibility for their results—while knowing when clear direction is needed.

Who is it for?

Managers, team leaders, supervisors and experienced colleagues who want to develop others, promote personal ownership, strengthen performance and reduce unnecessary dependence on their expertise.

Immersive Learning & Expert-Led Facilitation

The coaching and mentoring training course is a hands-on, immersive learning experience where you will learn by doing. It is not a Powerpoint slideshow!

A recognised subject expert will facilitate your programme. Content is flexible and tailored to match your organisation's priorities. This means you achieve the best possible return on your investment in coaching and mentoring training.

Proactive Learning Transfer

Participants won't have to try and remember the skills, tools and principles they learn with us. Everyone will gain access to our online learning platform which is packed with little-known approaches they can use immediately.


10 specific learning focus points

  1. Choose the right approach - A clear way to decide when to ask questions, share experience or give direct instruction.

  2. Agree the purpose and boundaries - An agreed purpose, clear responsibilities and appropriate boundaries around confidentiality and support.

  3. Build trust without avoiding challenge - A constructive approach that makes it easier to speak honestly, explore mistakes and address difficult issues.

  4. Listen to understand, not to respond - Focused listening that checks understanding, tests assumptions and identifies what needs attention.

  5. Ask questions that move thinking forward - A practical questioning toolkit that helps people explore options, challenge their thinking and choose a way forward.

  6. Structure a productive coaching conversation - A repeatable structure that moves from a clear goal to the current situation, possible options and agreed action.

  7. Mentor without taking over - Purposeful sharing of experience, insight and lessons—while leaving room for the other person’s judgement.

  8. Address performance gaps constructively - Specific, evidence-based conversations that clarify expectations, explore barriers and agree what needs to change.

  9. Build confidence and independent problem-solving - Conversations that help people recognise their capabilities, weigh up choices and take appropriate responsibility.

  10. Turn insight into action and follow-through - Clear actions, named ownership, realistic deadlines and review points that keep development connected to the job.
