Introduction
This case study of a federal government is based on a December 2019 survey of InsideOut Development customers by TechValidate, a 3rd-party research service. The profiled organization asked to have their name blinded to protect their confidentiality.
“InsideOut’s coaching approach and tools are easy to apply.”
“The theory is put into useful, actionable tools that make coaching accessible to busy managers. The workshop is interactive and gives managers time to delve into the tools and consider their experiences with coaching and being coached.”
“Managers are more likely to have difficult conversations since they have the tools to use. In turn, employees own their own problems and are less likely to “lay” problems at their managers feet. Employee accountability for solutions and performance is increased."
“InsideOut Development’s coaching model and tools drive key performance metrics for my team.
