The Leader Coach · Public workshop
Stop solutionising.
Start coaching.
Stop being the person who solves everything. Build a team that can think, decide and perform without relying on you.
Early bird closes 3 February 2027, then $1,890 + GST. Up to 50% co-funding may be available through the Regional Business Partner Network.
Most of us were never taught how to coach.
We get stuck fixing, firefighting and rescuing. It isn’t sustainable, and it doesn’t grow capable people around you.
Coaching is one of the most powerful ways to lead. It helps you empower others, delegate with confidence and build a culture of ownership.
Without the right mindset, tools and practice, we solve problems ourselves instead of growing our people. That leads to stress, bottlenecks and missed potential, for you and your team.
What you get
Two days to learn it. Three months to make it stick.
Most workshops don’t change habits. This one is built so they do.
01
2-day immersive workshop
Not a course where you get talked at. Two hands-on days practising better questions and conversations that build real ownership.
02
3 follow-up coaching labs
Three 60-minute online sessions after the workshop. Bring real workplace challenges and get expert feedback as your confidence grows.
03
Leader Coach Playbook
Your go-to reference for real-time leadership: proven coaching frameworks and question guides, perfect before 1:1s and team check-ins.
04
Peer coaching circles
Pair up with a fellow participant between sessions to try new techniques in a safe space and get candid, useful feedback.
05
Bridge community
Join an alumni network of managers and executives on the same path. Share insights, work through tough situations and keep each other accountable.
Ready to stop solving everything?

A word from Kenny
“After three years of running Leader Coach programmes in-house for government and private sector clients, we’re finally bringing it to the public. There isn’t much like this out there, and there’s so much value to gain. Why shouldn’t every leader have access to this?”
