As the war for talent increases, organisations are being challenged to take a more robust approach to developing and nurturing a consistent pool of talented executives who will drive their business success both now and in the future.

Our presentation will cover the role and uses of NLP and executive coaching in supporting organisations to manage and develop talent strategically. A particular emphasis will be on the development of senior executive talent and the role of NLP frameworks and coaching in supporting organisations to tackle this issue effectively.

We will look at case study evidence regarding the strategic role of coaching and NLP in Managing Talent and you will improve your ability to talk to clients particularly in large organisations about the link between coaching and talent management.

Our experience tells us that most coaching is currently assigned on an ad hoc and remedial basis -- we believe that our approach creates a platform and solid business context for moving the coaching intervention to a more future oriented and systemic based coaching approach.
