In a non-hierarchical structure, for efficiency, cooperation and a good working environment, coaching is key. The decisions must come from the team and not from above. Tuff’s courses help to implement coaching in the company in a very practical way.

The results in brief

As a result of our programmes, leaders get a completely new view of what leadership can be. They gain revolutionary insights into their pitfalls, which gives them self-interest to intensively train in ‘the new’.

Participants get hold of new ways of relating and leading, and develop the abilities that liberate commitment and responsibility in their teams. This means that they not only gain new insights, but it affects how they are, how they behave and how they communicate.

Over the years, our clients have told us again and again that our programmes are the best they have ever experienced because they create real, lasting shifts in people. Here’s why…

We are experts at creating brave spaces

Training in ways of being and new abilities is tough. We are masters in creating safe spaces, but more than that, we create brave spaces where participants dare to make mistakes and try out strange, new things. They feel able to share openly their pitfalls and struggles, knowing that it is part of a process.

We start by putting participants in an incompetence coma

It may sound harsh, but without confronting our inability, there is no self-interest to learn. The vast majority of leaders come in with an attitude of “I already do this” and nothing will shift so long as that attitude prevails. Nowadays we are able to dissolve this is no time.

Pitfalls are exposed immediately

A large part of the participants’ development happens by identifying their pitfalls. This is what is ‘tough’ and painful – to be confronted with your pitfalls. Our trainers have devoted years of training to be able to perceive participants’ pitfalls at lightning speed. No participant gets through without having challenged their pitfalls and this is a huge part of the personal shift. It simply becomes too painful to continue as before.

No theory, just practice

Results do not come from the transfer of theoretical knowledge. They come from practising, practising and practising again. Participants practise new ways of being and get constant feedback and coaching until no longer feels strange and they start to create their own version of a trust based, empowering, adult-adult leadership.

The content in brief

Practical, intensive training where you:

  • Discover your automatic, unfavourable mindsets which limit others' commitment, responsibility and drive

  • Explore and train in new ways of relating to your colleagues

  • Train core communication skills, such as listening so that the other person feels heard

  • Get a toolbox of simple, useful models for the the five most common leadership-related conversations

When the OS is outdated

Lately I have been thinking about trainings off-site (classroom) versus development on the job (cf. 70-20-10).  An old metaphor that might be useful is that companies and organisations are exploring so many new ways of working, for example open-plan office spaces (for better collaboration), Agile teams, lean and all the way to self-management.
