Peer Coaching
Why Peer Coaching?
To address widely varying skillsets within key roles, many organizations leverage peer coaching to establish organizational competency norms, work through employee workplace problems and improve employee performance. The impact of peer coaching is powerful, with Bersin reporting that organizations with excellent cultural support for coaching have 13 percent stronger business results. Peer coaching is most prevalently used for new managers to help them adjust to the new challenges of the management role, but can also be applied to develop key individual contributors.
- Focus on specific skill or competency growth
- Improve key employee performance
- Develop new managers
“The ROI for companies that invest in coaching is 7x the initial investment.”
