Developing the ability to hold space for effective coaching conversations allows leaders to empower others to develop themselves and encourage independent problem-solving.

Leaders and organisations that develop coaching skills also see increasingly higher levels of employee engagement, motivation and efficiency.

In this episode, I talk to Kristy Battista, CTO at Allume Energy.

Together we explore:

• How to develop your coaching skills
  
• The benefits of the “leader as a coach” style
  
• The key to deep listening
  
• Important tips about asking the right questions
