Creating a Coaching Ecosystem

The term coaching in organizations has evolved significantly. It was once used primarily to “fix” the performance of non/low performers. At some stage, it became a prerogative of few senior, high potential employees who required a series of closed doors conversations to progress further in their lives and careers. The overall view around people and performance development has now evolved significantly.

At Pragyan, we believe that building a coaching ecosystem requires working on five levers and a strong linkage to the business agenda. Few examples of strategic shifts that can set the stage for building a coaching culture are i) a company that was earlier in pure play telecommunications now wants to be a digital infrastructure provider for large enterprises ii) a domestic pharma company into generics/API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient) now wants to enter into international market through alliances.
