Coaching as a Strategic Partner in Leadership in the AI Era
In a world shaped by rapid technological change and increasing complexity, leadership requires more than just decision-making and strategy, it demands presence, adaptability, and authentic connection. As AI reshapes the workplace, coaching emerges as a powerful ally for leaders navigating uncertainty and leading with clarity.
Join us for an interactive group coaching session where we explore how coaching acts as a strategic partner in modern leadership. Together, we will:
• Explore how coaching empowers leaders to lead more consciously and effectively in fast-changing environments.
• Practice active listening and giving/receiving
feedback, key skills that strengthen relationships and support growth.
• Understand the impact of coaching presence in leadership conversations and decision-making.
• Identify your own leadership challenges that could benefit from a coaching approach.
• Engage in a safe, reflective space that fosters insight, shared learning, and new perspectives.
Whether you’re a coach, a leader, or someone passionate about human-centered leadership, this session offers valuable tools and inspiration for thriving in the age of AI, where the most human skills matter more than ever.
