Management Skills Coaching

Project details

What we need
  • Initial assessment of areas of strength, targets for improvement and specific areas of focus desired for the coaching sessions
  • Up to 6 coaching sessions exploring areas such as motivation, empowerment, collaboration, communication, giving / receiving feedback & conflict management
  • Wrap-up session with actionable steps and advice moving forward as a manager
Language proficiency requirements

English and Standard German proficiency is required. You will not be able to apply if you do not meet this requirement. Learn more about language proficiency requirements.

Additional details

I am kind of in-between management and contributor roles at the moment. It is a slow transition into more and more management functions. My supervisor gives me lots of freedom in this process which is good and bad at the same time.

Right now, I am trying to figure a suitable management style for my personality. Additionally, I would like some feedback on my inherent management weaknesses and how to overcome them.

Thank you!

What we have in place
  • We currently have a good understanding of my personality and goals, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have time and willingness to talk about questions that may arise, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $7,248 , allowing us to continue to grow and plan new projects in times where the economic conditions for nature protection NGOs in Europe are not ideal.

Improving my management skills will help our growing NGO in successfully completing the EU-LIFE Project "Insect-Responsible Sourcing Regions" and provide valuable perspective for the development of our team and applications for future projects.
