Leading as a coach

100 leaders of a leading hospital gathered together for two days to think about ways to further develop a positive, inspiring and realistic culture throughout their organization. xpand has moderated those two days. We started off with dividing everyone into small groups of 7, and had an expectations-session.

The question was: ‘how would you lead yourself?’ After 2 hours of intensive and creative thinking, a hotlist with 7 main findings was made. The first and foremost topic was the need for coaching from within the organization: ‘I want to receive appreciation and feedback from my team-leader, and I want to receive it on a regularly basis.’
