What is Co-Coaching Between a Manager and an Employee?
​
Co-coaching in a workplace context refers to a manager and an employee engaging in a two-way coaching relationship. Unlike traditional top-down coaching or mentoring, co-coaching is a collaborative partnership where both parties coach and learn from each other.
It creates an open space for shared learning, mutual feedback, and personal and professional development for both manager and employee.
What Can Co-Coaching Offer?
​
1. Build trust and open communication: Foster honest conversations and stronger working relationships.
2. Encourage mutual learning: Both manager and employee gain new perspectives and insights on how their relationship can work better, and an understanding of different ways of working
3. Develop coaching skills: The manager hones their coaching style, and the employee practices giving and receiving constructive feedback.
4. Empower the employee: Boosts confidence, autonomy, and ownership of their development.
5. Support problem-solving and innovation: Encourages creative thinking and collaborative solutions to workplace challenges.
6. Align goals and expectations: Helps clarify roles, priorities, and professional growth plans.
7. Create a coaching culture: Demonstrates that development is an ongoing, shared responsibility, not just a one-way process.
