These are just a few of the reasons why in an increasingly turbulent world more and more organisations are identifying
coaching as a prime tool to support people to and through change. Employees themselves have expectations of their
employers and are anticipating coaching within the work setting

The CIPD Learning and Development Survey 2007 reported that 6 out of 10 respondents use coaching in their organisations,
of these just over 50% say that their organisation sees coaching as a "permanent" style of management and 73% of respondents
expect to see coaching by their line managers in the coming years.

The Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development estimate that the cost of recruiting a new employee equates to approximately
1/3 of the first year salary ,it is not surprising therefore that Lloyds TSB Scotland embarked on a coaching based initiative
across the whole Senior Management Team. The results speak for themselves:
|
|
| • 95% retention of top talent in retail (June 06 - June 07) |
| • 93% staff have a clear understanding of company goals |
| • 33% growth in the company partly attributed to coaching style |

Coaching is a non-directive intervention that is action orientated and future focussed enabling an individual or team to identify
a plan of action to enable them to achieve a desired goal. It is time limited and sessions usually last up to two hours. It is
facilitated by a trained coach and may take place in or outside the work environment.
