HEALTHCARE PEOPLE MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATION EXCELLENCE IN
HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGEMENT AWARDS 2013
I'm delighted to confirm that our Coaching Culture Programme, led by Tracy
Hill, Director of Human Resources and Organisational Development with
sponsorship from myself, is one of three entrants to have achieved finalist
status in the Healthcare People Management Association (HMPA) Excellence

The Healthcare Performance Award recognises the best coaching and
personal development strategy, and will be presented to the winner at a
celebration dinner on 27 June to be held at in London.
Our entry outlined the programme's business need; project design;
underpinning evidence base; management process and evaluation. Among
the programme's achievement, we were able to evidence that:

100 per cent of participants either agreed or strongly agreed that they
felt knowledgeable about having a coaching conversation having
completed the programme, compared with 53 per cent beforehand.

confident in having a coaching conversation having completed the
programme, compared with 44 per cent beforehand.
