How to Use Coaching Skills to Create High-Performing Teams

In this dynamic session, attendees will gain a deeper understanding of what coaching is—and when it’s most effective. They will discover how a coach-like approach enhances performance, unlocks creativity, and cultivates the next generation of leaders. Through hands-on practice, participants will develop two foundational coaching skills: deep listening and asking powerful, thought-provoking questions. By the end of the session, they’ll feel confident and energized to apply coaching in their roles and witness the positive ripple effect across their teams and business outcomes.

The Why:
In today’s rapidly evolving tech landscape, coaching is a critical leadership capability. Leaders who adopt a coach-like style empower their teams to be more agile, innovative, and self-sufficient. Unlike traditional controlling-type management, coaching builds psychological safety, encourages diverse thinking, and strengthens team engagement. It is also one of the few leadership tools that cannot easily be replicated by AI—making it a future-proof skill. For women in leadership, coaching offers a powerful way to lead with authenticity and influence, rather than authority alone, fostering inclusive, nurturing and trust-based cultures.
