The LGiU is offering a new one-day session on the practical and theoretical aspects of coaching in a local authority environment.
Coaching offers a range of benefits, not only to those who are receiving it, but also to the coach and the wider service sectors in the organisation.

Key outcomes:
- Learning about the coaching process with tips and techniques for successful delivery
- Understanding how skills and knowledge can be transferred through coaching
