Internal KU Coaching

Coaching is a process of guiding an employee from one level of competency to another. Employees who engage in coaching are more likely to improve their self-confidence and grow in their ability to:

communicate effectively.
work constructively with others.
meet commitments and take responsibility for their actions.
set goals and take action to achieve them.

Although coaching is not mentoring, counseling, or teaching, the one-on-one sessions provide crucial space for personal development, which can improve your productivity and performance. Common focus areas for coaching include:

Communication
Conflict resolution
Decision-making and problem-solving
Goal setting and strategic thinking and planning
Leadership and team development
Organization and time-management
Teamwork and relationship building
