Introduction
If you’re working at a company that relies on technology, it’s likely that your IT department is stretched thin. In fact, the demand for more and better technology solutions has been steadily increasing over the years. This means that many companies currently have more tech needs than they can handle with just one or two IT resources on staff. If this describes your situation, then an online coach may be just what you need to help fill those gaps in your team’s knowledge base as well as keep everyone up to date on current trends in the industry.
They’ll give developers the right training.
Your developers will love having an online coach. As a matter of fact, they need one! No matter how much experience or knowledge you have as a developer, or how many years you’ve spent working in the industry—the world is changing at such a rapid pace that it’s absolutely necessary to keep your skills up-to-date and continue learning new things in order to be successful.
For example: Perhaps your company has just launched its newest product on the market and there are several bugs that need fixing. Your developer turns those around quickly with their new techniques they learned from their online coaching sessions. Or maybe your company has been using certain kinds of software for some time now but have recently upgraded all computers running this software with newer versions that have different interfaces than before (iPad instead of PC). Your developers will now need training on how to use these new interfaces if they want to continue working efficiently within their departments (or even outside them!).
The bottom line is: Having an online coach means having someone who can help ensure all employees’ professional growth stays on track with current industry standards—and ensures this growth continues even after any changes occur within the workplace itself!
They’ll keep your tech resources in sync and up to date.
Now that you know what an online coach can do, let’s take a look at how they can help your IT department.
An online coach will keep your tech resources in sync and up to date. They’ll be able to help you stay up-to-date with the latest technologies and trends so that your team is consistently working with the best tools available for their job. Additionally, an online coach will make sure everyone has access to industry news and technology news—so that everyone is aware of important events happening in the world of technology!
They can create a custom course to meet your needs.
Custom courses are great for training teams of developers. You can create a custom course that is tailored to your specific needs, and then train all of the members of your IT department at once.
For example, say you have an in-house team dedicated to developing new features for your mobile application. They may be using Angular as their framework, but they’re still learning how to use it effectively. A custom course created by an online coach could teach them how to build components with Angular that are easy for clients or other developers on their team—and it may even lead them down a path toward creating unique features that other companies don’t offer yet!
You can also use custom courses for individual training purposes: if one person on your IT staff wants some extra help learning about JavaScript frameworks or up-and-coming technologies like blockchain (yes, really), an online coach can create a course just for them!
Your team will never get bored.
Your developers will never get bored again. The best way to keep your developers engaged and motivated is through a variety of challenges that they can tackle both individually and as a team. An online coach will be able to provide this variety, allowing you to constantly challenge your developers with new skills, tasks, or projects.
You might be thinking “but what if I don’t know what kinds of projects my developers would like?” That’s where we can help! Our coaches have over 15 years of experience working with software engineers at all levels, so we have high-level knowledge about the types of challenges that most appeal to different types of developers. We can work with you before each session starts so that we’re sure everyone gets what they need out of each course or project
They’re cheaper than you think.
These days, the price of a top-tier coach is less than the cost of a single employee in your IT department.
That’s because they can be used by multiple people in your company at once. Plus, they have an ongoing relationship with your organization and can work with you to create a custom plan that meets both your needs and budget.
And since they offer ongoing training as well as one-off sessions, this type of service makes sense for businesses looking for ongoing improvement in their employees’ technical skillset—and who want to stay on top of technology trends without breaking the bank.
An online coach can be an invaluable tool and resource for an IT department or developer team.

With our years of experience in the industry and our deep understanding of what makes a successful business tick, we can help you get the most out of your IT budget while also maximizing the potential of your developers.
Our approach is simple: We will work with you to identify areas where improvement is needed and establish goals that need to be met so that everyone is working toward a common goal. Then we’ll create a plan based on those goals. The beauty of this process is that it gives every stakeholder involved—from CTOs down to individual developers—the opportunity to see their own personal growth reflected in their work performance as well as their overall contribution toward achieving company objectives.
