Spent a thoroughly enjoyable evening at The East Riding Business Network last night. I was invited by a member Neil Edlin and enjoyed the company of the people I met.
Highlight for me was the presentation given Rob McPhun. Rob is a retired police officer who rose to senior rank in the Humberside force. Rob's experience of managing teams of people in what must often be pretty stressful circumstances is now being turned into a benefit for the business community. Rob has set up a successful personal and business coaching business.
On Thursday March 10th he is running a free seminar entitled Are You Ready for the Fallout. Rob will be advising senior managers on the best way to get the best out of colleagues who may be left in the workplace after a round of redundancies. People in this situation are often said to be suffering from "Survivors' Guilt" and may often be demotivated and fearful for their jobs.
The event takes place at South Hunsley School, Melton, East Riding on the 10th March 9.00 am -11.00 am. A second seminar takes place at the same venue the same day at 1.30pm.
Rob also ran through some very useful self-evaluation techniques he encourages his coaching clients to employ. Above all he stated that the prime goal of any ethical coach is to encourage clients to be able to self-coach.
A great evening and very informative.
