To help achieve this aim, individual coaching is available to all levels of managerial / supervisory staff who, are responsible for the management and development of others. This can include existing and experienced Managers / Supervisors, but just as importantly, newly promoted managerial / supervisory staff who are generally inexperienced. These people will benefit enormously from the one-one approache that individual coaching / mentoring can deliver. Coaching / mentoring programmes can be tailored to meet the specific requirements of the individual.
