Quality Management & Coaching for Team Leaders

No role has more influence on day-to-day service quality than the Team Leader. How they define quality, listen to interactions and coach their people shows up in every call, email and chat.

This course gives Team Leaders a clear way to define what good looks like, monitor interactions fairly and coach in a way that actually changes behaviour.

What’s in it for you

What you’ll be able to do

Most Team Leaders inherit a scorecard and a target to “lift quality”, but rarely learn how quality is defined, measured and coached in high-performing centres.

Without that, QA feels like policing and coaching focuses on forms instead of people. You’ll leave with a structured way to turn quality into development.

  • Clear standards everyone understands
  • Fair, consistent monitoring
  • Coaching that changes behaviour

The course

Four modules over two live sessions

Quality Management & Coaching for Team Leaders runs live online over two 4.5-hour sessions on consecutive days: nine hours with Daniel Ord.

Day one builds the foundations: what quality looks like, how to interpret standards and how to listen to interactions fairly. Day two goes deeper into coaching models, calibration and real-world application.

You’ll work through real standards, forms and interactions with Team Leaders from other organisations.
