Coaching is a leadership skill that has become increasingly important given today’s ever-changing workplace. There are few work environments more dynamic than an emergency department, so it is imperative that we train leaders in this skill.

In this small group session, we will teach the GROW model to facilitate a coaching dialogue. Learners will role play cases based on common scenarios that they might encounter, and they will evaluate their skills with feedback from session facilitators and fellow learners. All emergency physicians are leaders in some capacity, but leadership may look different for each of us. Therefore, our cases will cover a large breadth of scenarios to ensure that the session is valuable for all.

Learning Objectives:

Identify the 4 parts of the GROW model for coaching
Apply the GROW model to non directive coaching discussions
Appraise coaching dialogues to determine balance between directive and non directive coaching
