Subject overview


The responsibility for coaching and mentoring a student or new member of staff goes way beyond helping them to learn the technical knowledge needed to do their job, or achieve a qualification. It is about creating well-rounded team members who understand the unwritten rules and responsibilities of the profession as well as introducing and explaining the skills to help develop the passion and dedication needed to suceed.

As a clinical coach or mentor in your organisation, your job will involve significant amounts of time supporting other members of staff as they develop the skills, confidence and abilities needed to do their job to the best of their ability.

Creating a positive coaching culture in your organisation will be of benefit to all involved by creating an environment where communication and team work are key factors in the success of the team.
