Henley
Business School has launched a new MSc in Coaching & Behavioural
Change as part of its executive education programme. Aimed at
those who are using or intend to develop a coaching approach in
either a line management role or as a professional freelance executive
coach, the programme will help develop both coaching skills and
the business acumen to apply them appropriately.
The
MSc
in Coaching & Behavioural Change will help successful
participants understand how to align coaching objectives with
business objectives, equipping them to help executives work through
challenging leadership issues: developing authentic leadership
skills or creating behavioural change to support a new organisational
direction.
Dr
Patricia Bossons, programme director, said: "This is a unique
programme. We already have an outstanding record with our 'Henley
Certificate in Coaching' and this programme enables coaching professionals
to go further and proactively support effective leadership by
emphasising the organisational context for coaching and including
a business management MBA-style challenge as an integral part
of the course."
The
part-time programme includes a number of residential workshops,
complemented by written assignments and including modules on 'Advanced
Coaching Practice', 'Group Dynamics and Systems Thinking', 'Becoming
a Reflective Practitioner' and 'Manager as Investigator'; together
with a management challenge and a personal leadership development
project. Participants will progress through a Postgraduate Certificate
(including the Henley
Certificate of Coaching) and accredited NLP Practitioner training
provided by ITS, a Postgraduate Diploma in Coaching and Behavioural
Change and culminating in the MSc in Coaching & Behavioural
Change. They will build mastery and confidence in leadership coaching
and develop their ability to use coaching to drive business objectives.
The
MSc in Coaching & Behavioural Change programme is part of
the highly successful range of programmes and services offered
by Henley
Coaching Services.
The
programme is the newest addition to Henley
Business School's executive education offering, which includes
both customised and tailored qualification programmes. These management
courses and leadership courses are highly practical, designed
to create immediate impact and make a real difference back in
the work environment.
