DescriptionAs we move through our careers’ we need to be proficient at all sorts of complex decision making. Peer coaching is one way of building safety and professionalism around that and is therefore a discipline which can serve you well throughout your whole career, not just during training. Coaching is a professional tool that seeks to improve performance by offering challenge and support. It creates an opportunity to consider what you can do to support your personal professional development. Peer coaching means this time to think is offered by a peer in your professional environment who has also received this training, and the support you offer is mutual.
Additional information

What does the training involve?

The training is a one-hour zoom teaching session with accompanying notes. It covers a 6-step peer coaching model – how to do it, timings and skills required. The training assumes no prior knowledge – the only pre-requisite is enthusiasm. A second one-hour follow-up session is offered for Q&A, and any clarifications or reflections that people want to share.

The zoom sessions include breakout room opportunities to have a go at peer coaching.

Due to the interactive nature of this workshop it is essential you join from somewhere quiet where you can participate fully, with both your sound and video on. It will be important for your fellow group members that you are in a ‘confidential space’, ie there are no interruptions (clinical commitments, people in the background, door bells to answer, children to care for, pets to manage etc). If you are unable to join with your video on and participate, please choose a session on a different date when you can.

Those interested might like to look at the book Time to Think by Nancy Kline in advance of the workshop or here at her ten components: https://www.timetothink.com/thinking-environment/the-ten-components/
