On-going coaching and development that can be a "game changer" for all
employees!
All great coaches know how to ask good open-ended questions and how to
give effective feedback. They keep a balanced and honest perspective
that separates the person from the problem or issue; coaching to
leverage their unique strengths and helping them improve weaknesses with
a mindset focused on continuous improvement.
This ongoing coaching and development can be a "game changer" for all
people and teams with access to it. But what about the teams and players
that aren't empowered--or even allowed--to expand their roles? Or the
team members whose careers don't inspire or play to their natural gifts,
talents, and strengths? It's painful for any organization or manager
when people on their team aren't given the tools to succeed; and more
painful still when the team member doesn't yet realize it. But by
coaching through leadership, any manager of any organization can create
a supportive structure that helps assign the right roles, resources,
tools, and career opportunities that will best leverage their strengths.
