Today - Thomas Crane, Creating a High Performance Coaching Culture, October 19, 2007, 12pm EST/9am PT
"Tom Crane offers a critical perspective on coaching that combines the heart and mind  - fostering higher levels of accountability and productivity, and deeper levels of working relationships ." - Louis Carter
 
You are invited to join Thomas Crane, consultant, facilitator, speaker and author of the book The Heart of Coaching, for a LIVE 45 minute webinar on: Creating a High Performance Coaching Culture.   In a COACHING CULTURE, all members of the culture courageously engage in candid, respectful coaching conversations, unrestricted by reporting relationships, about how they can improve their working relationships and individual and collective work performance. All have learned to value and effectively use feedback as a powerful learning tool to produce higher levels of personal accountability, professional development, high-trust working relationships, continually-improving job performance, and ever-increasing customer satisfaction.  Tom will share the development process, where coaching cultures fit in the big picture, and several of the diagnostic tools he has created to guide the transformational journey of his clients. He will cover:

  • What distinguishes a coaching culture from other cultures;
  • an overview of the robust toolkit participants learn to master;
  • the follow-through measurement and assessment processes that lead to sustainable behavioral change; and
  • a recap of client success stories to date.

Dr. William Rothwell - Moving Beyond Management Succession Planning to Technical Succession Planning
Say the term "Succession planning," and most managers think of preparing a talent pipeline for future promotion. That dramatizes the preoccupation with preparing people for vertical advancement. But what about the technical knowledge that is contained in the heads of your organization's most valuable technical experts (HiPros)? What about the "know how" of managers on why the organization did what it did in the past and how to get results by talking to the right people in the right ways? These questions focus around technical succession planning, which is the process of capturing, distilling and preserving lessons learned from the past and lessons gained from experience.  How does it differ from traditional management succession planning? Social relationship succession planning? Based on research and experience in working with many types of organizations for the past 25 years, William will share practical approaches to capture, preserve and communicate tacit knowledge.  

You will:

  • Hear distinctions between management and technical succession planning
  • Compare technical experts' organizational practices to best practices
  • Learn how to address the most common problems and mistakes made in implementing technical succession planning programs
