So what does coaching contribute to business success? Quite a bit, according to Moritz Mann, founder and managing director of Protofy. Together with his colleagues, the company’s management team provide regular personal coaching to all employees, without tying it to any particular development topic.
For one thing, and this is why I love my job, in order to support people, so that they can do their best, be the best version of themselves, and be successful.
Protofy provides its employees with monthly session with certified business coaches, in order to work on topics in their everyday work-life or other life realms. Why? To provide an opportunity for personal development, as part of their wellbeing measures, to strengthen their employees’ mental health, and to give them the opportunity to work on problems and conflicts in a safe space….in short, to give their employees an opportunity to positively deal with the ever-increasing complexity of today’s workspace and to sustainably contribute to their mental health. Who better to describe this in detail than the man himself: in his article for deutsche startups on why start-ups should incorporate personal coaching in their HR portfolio (article in German).
