Description
Book SynopsisThis book offers an essential evaluation model so that leadership coaches and stakeholders can demonstrate the impact of their coaching programmes, challenging current thinking that the return on investment from leadership coaching is too complex to measure. The book is both practical and strategically informative, supporting coaches and organisations to plan confidently for the future as they collaborate over both short- and long-term decisions.
The book provides:
â
Ideas and insights into the dissemination of evaluation data to key strategic destinations
â
Case studies that show how to evaluate Return on Investment (RoI) for both financial and non-financial targets such as behaviours, potential and wellbeing
â
Tips, templates and reflective activities
Re-imaging evaluation as a strategic opportunity rather than an operational task enables leaders to perform in an agile way that is responsive to local and global uncertainties
