Every leader also needs to be a coaching leader. Coaching abilities support leaders in creating an ecosystem, where employees are empowered to boost their potential, are driven to develop themselves, and think beyond the confines of their roles. Too often the focus is on the challenges of coaching as a manager or leader.
At Holding Space we don’t ignore the challenges faced by our clients – we integrate proven solutions into our managerial coaching curriculum. We have successfully provided managerial coaching programs in several organizations and leadership teams. In a recent project, we supported the senior leadership team of a Swiss Pharmaceutical in managing their transition to a matrix structure through the adoption of the Leader Coach approach and greater emphasis on influencing and stakeholder engagement.
A proven blueprint for over 15 years
Our program, honed over 15 years, is a proven blueprint for helping managers adopt a coaching posture with direct reports. Reflection on own management, leading by example and clarity of organization culture are foundations of the journey to be a manager /leaders coach. Mastering the coaching methodology not only brings managers to be more effective in their role but also allows them to harness robust team leadership skills like emotional intelligence, feedback, delegating and upholding accountability.
Curated content
Within 3 days of training our participants are able to acquire the tools and methodology to coach and trigger deeper and broader thinking in their direct reports. In this program, we use curated content, evidence-based learning and carefully tailored support and guidance -to help leaders adopt a coaching approach.
Practical approach to coaching
We take a very practical approach to teaching coaching to leaders and managers: we recognize that there is tension between coaching and managing – in the sense that the manager or leader has a hierarchical role wider than that of development; where they are also bound by the delivery of their KPI and business outcomes.
Our courses also focus on creating clarity in the participant’s managerial role and responsibilities and using the coaching skills to strengthen the manager’s impact and effectiveness.
Why Managerial Coaching?
With our curated program and personalized support, your leaders will not only adopt but excel in a coaching approach, leading to a more dynamic, agile, and forward-thinking workforce. Managers /leaders will know how to use their own behavior to establish trust and also recognize how to nurture a psychologically safe environment for their team. They will have a robust knowledge of the coaching methodology but also WHEN to coach. Coaching helps managers to be the agents of healthier work cultures!

The coaching sessions provided the space for me to pull back from the intensity and multiplicity of events occurring at work. They promoted my decision to build short gaps of reflection time for myself during the day – I found these reflective spaces beneficial, as they led to important insights for my professional life and enhanced self awareness around my leadership.
