Secrets to becoming a successful manager

Marc Steinberg, founder and CEO of Creative Consciousness International (CCI) Coaching Academy, has spent more than 20 years researching human consciousness; from this research he has developed Consciousness Coaching®, one of the worlds most advanced coaching methods. Steinberg states that people who learn to coach, learn to manage people. “A manager who learns to apply coaching principles with ease becomes extremely effective and frees up time to do tasks other than simply managing.”

Steinberg relates the roll of a manager in a team to the relationship between a sportsperson and his or her coach. It's the athlete who has to run the race; the coach is in the sidelines providing the skills and inspiration for success. “A coach knows how to get people to align themselves with certain goals, commit to achieving them, and then get them to follow through with action in integrity,” says Steinberg. This is what Master 1: The Awareness Process, the first in CCI's 5-series coaching curriculum holds at its core: goal alignment, commitment, action and integrity.

CCI's curriculum is a highly effective management training program. “More and more managers who receive coach training in Master 1 are realising that if they could apply the principles learnt in the training they would become far more powerful and effective.”

The Master 11 program is called “Coaching as a Way of Life” and offers managers a fast, effective route to understanding and applying the skills acquired in Master 1: The Awareness Process, to each interaction and task faced in professional and personal life environments.

The next Master 1: The Awareness Process runs in Cape Town from 7 – 10 February and in Johannesburg from 6 – 10 March 2008, followed by Master 11: Coaching as a Way of Life in Cape Town from 13 – 16 March, and in Johannesburg from 10 – 13 April.
