Coaching versus Training

Many organizations hire consultants to provide training on a variety of topics, including psychological safety, nonviolent communication, diversity and inclusion, etc etc. Although training can provide foundational concepts, it often doesn't produce lasting change and especially fails to address interpersonal tensions among employees. Individuals will often nod their heads in agreement during a training, but then don't put the concepts/skills into practice because the underlying relational injuries have not been addressed. I often say, "You can't train away conflict and relational injuries in the workplace." Wise organizational leaders realize that they must invest in coaching to address the conflicts and to put changes into practice. RJCG is well-positioned to help!
