## Description

The Pension Protection Fund \(PPF\) is embarking on a programme of development activity to increase management capability\. This is a long-term initiative as we continue to realise our ambition of being a high performing customer focused financial institution \(CFFI\)\. To support this programme we want to make increased use of a coaching approach by placing more emphasis on managers using coaching skills to develop their teams thereby improving performance; plus we wish to increase our employees’ experience of and exposure to coaching\. What outcomes do we want to see? We want: - Our managers to be flexible in their approach; getting the best out of each team member; - Our managers to be comfortable and confident in giving and receiving feedback, resulting in meaningful and constructive two-way conversations; - Our Senior Leadership population to feel confident to give greater accountability to managers; knowing that they will in turn empower their teams to make confident and appropriate decisions; - Employees to have access to great business coaches who will challenge and support them in their development; - Our Executive and Senior Leadership team to have access to skilled and experienced coaches who challenge and support them in continued personal and professional growth
