Build a Coaching Culture

Building a coaching culture takes serious skill

To stay competitive, you need your employees to constantly learn and improve. How do you get there? Build a coaching culture. 

A coaching culture is an environment where people feel comfortable asking questions and sharing candid feedback. There’s no shame in not knowing something, but there’s ample opportunity to learn. And most of all, anyone can be a coach, whether it’s a peer, direct boss, or even a senior leader.  

Ready to get started creating a coaching culture? Our proven leadership development program will help you quickly develop the skills your leaders need.

Begin a Learning Journey to Build Coaching Skills

You can’t build a coaching culture with just a few leaders who excel at it. You need your leaders to share a common understanding of coaching, and how to apply it. It’s the only way to shift the environment.

DDI’s coaching program includes:

  • A self-assessment to reflect on strengths and gaps 
  • High-impact workshops focused on communication, coaching, and feedback 
  • Short digital experiences to dive deeper into coaching skills 
  • On-demand tools to help them plan and practice coaching conversations 
  • Flexible options to adapt coaching models 

By the end, it won’t just be your leaders who have changed. Their teams will be learning and growing alongside them, thanks to the coaching they received.
