Management Skills Coaching

Project details

What we need
  • Initial assessment of areas of strength, targets for improvement and specific areas of focus desired for the coaching sessions
  • Up to 6 coaching sessions exploring areas such as motivation, empowerment, collaboration, communication, giving / receiving feedback & conflict management
  • Wrap-up session with actionable steps and advice moving forward as a manager
What we have in place
  • I am the program director of an after-school program that provides enrichment, field trips, and summer camp to families at no cost. Being a part of a small non-profit often means wearing multiple hats, working long hours at times, and managing a team of employees, volunteers, and partners/vendors to accomplish the shared goal of building a promising future for the children of southeast Atlanta.

    I look forward to strengthening the managerial skills needed to excel and propel our work forward.
How this will help
This project will save us $7,248 , allowing us to offer professional development to support staff and fund out of town professional development that is unavailable given budget constraints.

This project will help strengthen mangers to provide the motivation, direction, and organizational leadership needed to propel our organization forward.
