Abstract
The University of Winchester was commissioned by NHS Thames Valley and Wessex
Leadership Academy to carry out an evaluation of training in health coaching delivered to
staff at Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, Hampshire County Council and Southern
Health NHS Foundation Trust.
The training was delivered by The Performance Coach between April and October 2015 at a
range of venues across the Wessex region. Staff members (n=144) from across the three
organisations carried out core skills training. A Train the Trainer programme in health
coaching was undertaken by a small group (n=8).
The evaluation involved the combined use of telephone interviews, face to face interviews
and focus groups to capture as many views from staff as possible. A Clinician Activation
Measure was also administered to assess the degree to which clinicians support patient self-management.
The main focus of the evaluation was changes in behaviour and performance resulting from
health coaching and how learning was applied by participants. Also reported were
improvements and impact at a broader, organisational level.
