Coaching

For many alumni, participation in our programmes is the start of a development journey. In order to support this, we have put in place a coaching scheme which is underpinned by the ethos and principles that are so evident within our programmes.

We offer a complimentary coaching chemistry session which is designed to introduce you to the coaching scheme. The scheme is open to all our alumni and is designed to support you at key points in your career, whether you attended a programme recently or some time ago. The scheme is also available to non-alumni who are committed to joining a programme.

What is coaching?

Coaching is a series of quality one-to-one confidential conversations, aimed at unlocking your potential, developing key skills and thereby maximising your own performance.

Why might you need a coach?

Coaching discussions are always designed around individual needs, but common requests come from individuals who wish to:

• increase their confidence or self-awareness
• enhance their performance or have greater empowerment
• think about career direction or transition
• work on an aspect of their wellbeing
• work on their leadership style
• explore changes in their organisation that require them to work in a different way
• work on a problem or relationship issue
• fill a greater leadership role in society
• work on their goals set at the end of a programme

The Windsor Leadership Coaching Scheme

Our scheme offers:

• six face-to-face or online coaching sessions of up to 90 minutes over a timeframe of 6 – 9 months
• a choice of executive coaches from our list of professionals who regularly work with Windsor Leadership and follow our guiding principles – the Windsor Way
• a ‘chemistry’ meeting to ensure you select the right coach for you

The cost

The cost of having a coach is £4,000. All surplus income from this scheme goes towards our bursary funding. This enables third-sector and faith leaders to benefit from attending our programmes.
