SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
Natividad desires to amend its Lincoln and Associates agreement that provides leadership coaching and facilitation of training programs/ classes for managerial staff. The hospital has utilized Lincoln and Associates' coaching and training services since January 2019 and would like to continue this relationship. Natividad was initially introduced to Catherine Lincoln through Monterey County's Learning and Organizational Development Department (LOD). Catherine Lincoln worked collaboratively with the LOD and the hospital on team building in the hospital kitchen by facilitating different training pieces. Her tactics and coaching strategies have proven to be helpful and successful in the various departments in which she has interacted.
The proposed amendment is through June 2022 and will allow for continued leadership coaching with existing "coachees" and an additional five leaders. It also allows for the onsite facilitation of four different management trainings.
