The Value of Effective Coaching
Overall, effective coaching in the public sector can lead to enhanced performance, improved employee satisfaction, better leadership, and a more resilient and adaptive organization. By investing in coaching initiatives, public sector organizations can create a positive and productive work environment that benefits both employees and the communities they serve. Data show that people who feel like they have a great coaching relationship report and 80% increase in self-confidence, as well as improved relationships (73%), communication skills (72%), interpersonal skills (71%), and work performance (70%).
