"Research shows that the implementation and uptake of High-performance Work Practices (HWP) practices within an organisation positively correlates with the rate of organisational growth, increased organisational profitability, higher job satisfaction, lower staff turnover and greater innovation and creativity within the workplace. HWP is defined as: ""a general approach to managing organisations that aims to stimulate more effective employee involvement and commitment in order to achieve high levels of performance… designed to enhance the discretionary effort employees put into their work, and to fully utilise the skills that they possess.’ Coaching MAPs (C-MAP) aims to help team leaders, mangers and organisations to improve their performance using a new coaching methodology called C-MAPs.C-MAP will develop a new pedagogical approach to work-based coaching. The project will enable two target groups of participants to access continuing VET opportunities training, thereby contributing to the priority relating to enhancing training for all. Firstly, C-MAP will train VET teachers/trainers in the use and delivery of the C-MAP methodology and VET course (IO1) and C-MAP Toolkit (IO2). The final Output will be a practical ‘how to-style’ guide called, Handbook for Work-Based Coaches.The project will impact on skills and performance of team leaders and managers as they will learn and implement new performance, solution-focused coaching techniques and skills in their workplace. As a result of C-MAP, both target groups will be better placed to further develop and support the skills and competences of others in the workplace using the C-MAP methodology.C-MAP will result in a new and innovative VET Curriculum and course designed to help 'the forgotten middle manager' to become a high-performance work-based coach using the new C-MAP methodology and course (IO1), the C-MAP Toolkit (IO2) and the newly created Handbook for Work-based Coaches (IO3). The project involves partners from Ireland, the UK, Portugal, the Netherlands, Italy and Bulgaria."
