In this course, learners develop practical strategies to coach, motivate, and influence peers, stakeholders, and cross-functional teams to achieve shared goals. Through real-world frameworks and applied scenarios, learners explore how to build a coaching culture, foster psychological safety, and communicate with clarity and credibility. The course introduces structured coaching processes, including goal setting, feedback, and performance conversations, alongside proven influence tactics grounded in power, persuasion, and social dynamics. Learners will practice using tools such as coaching frameworks, reflection journals, and influence mapping to guide conversations and decision-making. By the end of the course, learners will be able to lead through influence, navigate complex workplace relationships, and drive alignment without relying on positional authority. This course is ideal for professionals seeking to strengthen leadership, coaching, and stakeholder management skills in modern organizations.
