It isn’t just in the current climate that we need to be looking at our investments and their return, but we should be trying to increase the value of them at all times.  This applies to our coaching investments as much as any others. 

At Delta Partnership, our approach to coaching ensures all our clients optimise their investment.  This isn’t new, we‘ve always done it – it’s one of our foundation ideas.  We work with our clients to increase the value of their coaching by recognising that:

• Coaching conversations, collectively, access insights and trends in the organisation via its leadership on a continuing basis.
• These insights and trends can be harnessed for true organisational learning without crossing lines of confidentiality
• The value gained from coaching interventions and support should be greater than the aggregate value of those individual 1:1 relationships.

Delta’s proven approach - Systemic Coaching delivers the full value of collective coaching efforts and investment.

Accelerating the development of less experienced staff is critical to business performance.  This is particularly relevant in a wide array of technical jobs and industries, where we often call on more experienced professionals and leaders to pass on their technical skills and knowledge.

Over recent months we have worked with several clients to build their senior professionals' capabilities in effective coaching and skills transfer techniques.

The Developing Technical Coaching programme is the result of our work with these clients.

In a recent webcast Stuart Pidgeon explains the benefits and how the programme works.

Over the last few years Ken Ideus and Kate Cowie have been writing a book - ‘Finding Merlin’ and it is now nearing completion.  There has been a surge of research and interest in understanding the development of the human mind – emotionally, cognitively and psychologically and Ken and Kate have been working to keep their approach integral, balanced and in line with current discovery.

If you are familiar with the folklore surrounding Merlin, you may have discovered that he symbolises the help and guidance that is available, all around us.  One moment he might show up as an old beggar, the next as a young aristocrat and in one account, even as a dragonfly.  When we open ourselves up to possibility, help can come in any number of forms, especially from people we may have not considered.  Or, help might come from a book, a news story, a song, a film, a painting - the possibilities are endless.

We are looking for Finding Merlin stories to include in our book and would like to hear yours.  Please don’t judge your stories as “not unique” or “not interesting” enough. Some of the best stories are from normal daily life.
