Since there is no roadmap for many of today’s challenges, having managers, supervisors and team leaders develop their people’s navigation skills is an increasingly crucial factor in reaching challenging goals, adapting, innovating and achieving continuous improvement at scale. As a result, coaching ability is becoming an essential skill for any manager.
In their new book Tilo Schwarz and Jeff Liker tell the story of a young manager, Denise, learning to coach her team the Toyota Kata way.
By practicing and coaching scientific thinking skills, we believe that people can outperform the expected and any challenge can be overcome.
Join us for this webinar and get a taste of how to become a better coach or help the managers you work with.
