An article in the 24 July edition of People Management (Ealing Council 'transformed' by coaching) reveals the benefits of a programme of coaching for the HR leadership team.
I initiated the programme whilst I was interim Director of HR there. It’s rewarding to see the benefits being derived from the coaching programme by the organisation and the individuals involved.

Chris was interviewed for an article in Personnel Today (24 June). He has been with Domino’s since 1990, initially as Marketing Director. Domino’s business proposition is a simple one – delivering a great pizza in 30 minutes. This is a challenging proposition as it relies on franchisees, not employees to deliver it. Their rigorous selection process ensures the best possible franchisees are chosen for their outlets – and that their promise will be delivered.

One of the keys to success at work is understanding what makes your boss tick. Yet surprisingly, this is something we often do not pay enough attention to.
When I started working for one boss, he told me in our first meeting ‘I want you to focus on solutions, not problems’ and this completely changed the way I approached my work. This knowledge helped me prepare well for our meetings and built our relationship on solid foundations. I didn’t always get it right, but knowing his criteria for a successful relationship helped me focus on what was important to him and therefore how to get the best from the time we spent working together. This also influenced his perception of my performance – critical for the end of year appraisal.

You probably spend a huge proportion of your time in meetings. When was the last time you attended a meeting that you felt really involved in and the outcome was really productive?
People sit round a table, in the same place, in the same room, exhibiting the same type of behaviour regardless of the subject or outcome required…. And yes, what IS the outcome you want from the meeting?

A letter in the 1 July edition of People Management was music to my ears. It was in response to an interview with the CIPD’s new Chief Executive, Jackie Orme. Jackie was quoted as saying that HR ‘must stop wasting its time by trying to justify its worth’. (hear, hear Jackie!)
