People have always had, and will always have, the greatest influence on productivity, excellence and quality, but only if leaders can unleash the talent in their employees and give them more autonomy while maintaining effective accountability.

Creating a coaching culture in an organisation allows leaders to truly understand their employees, and to get the very best from them, whilst creating an environment where employees feel trusted, supported and energised – all key for business success.

Leaders today have many challenges when it comes to guiding and influencing the performance of their team members. In the past, productivity and success depended on hard work. Technological advances, increased competition (domestic and international), and the desire of employees to be more involved in managing their own work, are powerful forces shaping the leader’s future role.

The need for quality, service, innovation, agility and effectiveness in organisations is stimulating a demand for employees to be empowered to think, feel and act more independently, and to be given more responsibility.

What does this mean for leadership?

It means a substantial change in the role of the traditional leader and in his/her skills to interact on a one-to-one basis. The new job of the leader is to coach, develop, train, delegate and facilitate rather than doing all the planning, organising and directing from an authoritative base.
