Coaching

Support them through coaching

Regular coaching will help the young talent to stretch themselves and manage stress. Having access to a coach, particularly during new/stretch assignments can be extremely beneficial to the talent.

Use Leadership Assessments to develop better understanding of motivations, strengths and derailers

Various leadership assessments exist such as DiSC, Myers Briggs and Hogan. Assessments can help identify strength areas and areas where development support is required.

In conclusion, the young generation is a powerhouse of future ideas and success. It is our responsibility to ensure they are nurtured and developed into the leaders of the future.

They will create the future of possibility, where collaboration and innovation bridges the gap of the oceans. They will create a new world.
