Our Programs
Coaching Programs
Each organization is unique, with its own specific challenges and questions. Yet the process of developing the people within an organization has common elements that apply to all businesses.
Distinct Planning has created a rich variety of standard coaching programs that can be applied to large and small businesses. These programs target leaders, teams and entrepreneurs.
Our roster of coaching programs is augmented by the specialized offerings of our associate coaches. From strategic planning to team building, presentation and communication skills to project management, our associates bring valuable experience and creative solutions to organizational challenges. Each associate has a niche, a special level of expertise, in areas as wide-ranging as women with leadership responsibilities, non-profit organizations, business development, and mid-life career transitions.
Flexibility is an important part of our coaching programs. Our professional coaches and consultants can adapt any program to ensure that you get the one that is best for your organization.
Meeting Your Needs with the Right Coaching Programs
Before beginning a coaching program, we talk with you to get a complete picture of what you need, how you envision accomplishing your goals, and what timeline you have in mind.
Only after we have had this discussion can we determine which programs and which team members are right for your organization.
We deliver coaching programs in a variety of ways. Many organizations opt for a team-based approach, where our coaches and consultants work with teams of executives, managers or employees. We also offer one-on-one coaching for those looking for a personalized, highly focused coaching solution.

Featured Program: "The Coaching Manager"
Leadership and management can be a really tough role to be in. Some leaders or managers have such a sharp or competitive edge, that the needs of their people become secondary. For others, honouring people is a challenge due to their past experiences or lack of training, or the limiting or harsh management style of a company’s executive leadership or corporate culture.
For the organizations that seek to foster a positive and empowering, "helping your people be the best they can be" approach – where challenges, obstacles, goal-setting is handled with a coach-like approach — this group of people will statistically have a much greater chance of achievement.
"The Coaching Manager" program is designed to assist team leaders and managers to adopt and bring to reality this type of attitude, energy and personality — for the greater success of ALL involved!
The Coaching Manager consists of:
- 2-day workshop to introduce the foundation of "a coach-like approach management style" covering 16 modules, case studies and experiential learning.
- Laying the foundation is only the beginning. To incorporate a true coach-like approach management style into your day-to-day business environment, a follow-up program where individual coaching sessions support and solidify the manager’s new learning into new permanent behaviors.
The coaching Manager program is personalized to meet your organization’s needs. A Team Member / Volunteer version is available.
We have access to a broad range of programs, tools and methodologies through our extensive network of coaches, consultants, trainers and facilitators. Contact us
