Program Participants鈥婳riginally introduced in the 1950鈥檚, the concept of Management by Objectives (MBO) encouraged the involvement of employees in the company鈥檚 goal setting process to increase engagement and improve results. By the 1980鈥檚 practically every modern Fortune 500 Company had implemented a goal setting process as part of their overall performance management practice.

More managers today are encouraged, even expected, to develop themselves as leaders and acquire coaching skills to more effectively manage their teams. Not only does coaching allow you to grow as a leader, it also makes you more attractive when interviewing for a new position. Add the skill of coach to your professional portfolio and you rise to the top of the list of candidates.
