Part 2 of this series with Jonathan Bond (HR Director & Learning at Pinsent Masons), in partnership with PeopleSmart, looks at how you can build a culture of coaching throughout the business.
Jonathan opens up about how the most respected leaders in an organisation should have a coach. It is the single most important and helpful thing that can help leaders open up about the fact they are receiving coaching and have gained many benefits and insights from it.
According to Jonathan, people need coaches when they make key transitions like becoming a partner, head of departments, or simply preparing for key steps.
“This is the perfect time to have a coach that will enable them to make the transition successfully”
Technology can help with zoom calls and psychometric testing, however, in certain situations, Jonathan explains how you need a genuine person-to-person conversation, technology can only get you so far.
