PROGRAM OVERVIEW:
Cone Health’s commitment to wellness expands from employee engagement to patient outcomes and community outreach. One of the hallmarks of Cone’s commitment to be “right here with you” can be seen in the Professional Coaching program. This offering was initiated over 13 years ago and has now certified over 100 leaders serving countless team members.
The impact on employee engagement and retention is easily visible. The commitment of leadership in supporting the robust training and the waiting list of leaders in line for each upcoming coach cohort speaks to the culture of development.
We are excited to finally get a peek into patient outcomes and as we have been able to capture data with greater intentionality. We have early data to suggest that positive patient outcomes are linked with employee participation in professional coaching. Come learn about our journey and promising trends in the data!contact
