This event aligns with the Professional and Organizational Application of ATD's Talent Development Capability Model.
Do you have difficulty explaining to your clients what you do? Are they confused about the difference between coaching, training, and consulting. Many talent development consultants serve their clients in each of these roles and need to be able to clearly explain how the roles are different. Especially on social media, the terms coach, trainer, and consultant are interchanged which creates confusion. It is up to us to align our services with our clients’ expectations so that we can address their needs with impactful solutions.
In this session, participants will:
- Differentiate how the role of coach, trainer, and consultant are similar and different
- Discuss best practices and experiences in how they serve their clients as coaches, trainers, and consultants
- Explore new ways to meet clients’ needs in each role
