Project details

What we need
  • Initial assessment of areas of strength, targets for improvement and specific areas of focus desired for the coaching sessions
  • Up to 6 coaching sessions exploring areas such as motivation, empowerment, collaboration, communication, giving / receiving feedback & conflict management
  • Wrap-up session with actionable steps and advice moving forward as a manager
Additional details

I just transitioned to a Director role within our organization and I want to be about to effectively support and manage experienced managers.

What we have in place
  • We currently have check in documents and I am able to get anything needed, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have I would have to think more, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $3,588 , allowing us to serve more girls across the markets we are in. This helps provide transportation to events and provide more supplies to have during programming.

I just want to be able to support staff to the best of my ability so they can perform and facilitate high-quality work so the girls we serve can receive high-quality programming.

Robert has alot of good knowledge to share. He is really good at giving examples and connecting his experience to yours. I felt very comfortable sharing and asking the questions I had.
