From Leader to Coach takes the leader through nine competencies to develop their capacity to lead others using a coach approach, and thus shifting the culture they are part of to be more high performing. The coach-like leader focuses on developing their own capacities, then applying what they learn to develop leadership in their team. They become more adept at communication, emotional intelligence, decision making, delegating, managing change and creating vision to lead more powerfully. By modeling these, their team, colleagues and organization are transformed.
