Coaching and mentoring resources
One of the most important coaching skills is the ability to ask good questions. These questions gather information; they clarify understanding and help the individual to think through a task for themselves. The Coaching Questions skills challenge from Scott Bradbury provides insight into the difference between diverging and converging questions and how to utilise each in the workplace. You can find this resource on the intranet.
What can you expect from participating in a mentoring programme as a mentor? In the 8-minute Meaningful Mentoring podcast from Scott Bradbury, mentoring and leadership development consultant Tina Dickens explains the importance of having a formal mentoring agreement with your mentee and explores the benefits of taking time to reflect after each mentoring session. You can find this resource on the intranet.
Organisational Development have a range of digital learning resources on a variety of workplace issues available from Scott Bradbury. You can find these on our dedicated intranet page.
Please note that not all the videos referenced in the skills challenges are available in the current Scott Bradbury subscription. But users can still undertake the main skills challenge within each.
