“Coaching” is Module 4 of the Scaling Culture Masterclass that consists of 8 Modules.
A coach has an incredible impact on our lives. They believe in us, see possibilities that we can't see, encourage us to go further than we would on our own, and challenge us to push our own limitations. Coaches are people who listen and make us feel safe and included. They truly care about our success, not their own. They invest the rarest commodities - time and attention. They remind us what's truly important and encourage us to be the best versions of ourselves. As Gregg Thompson puts it, "Coaching is about imagining who someone can be, versus who they are today."
As a leader, coaching needs to start with you, but it shouldn't stop with you. Share this material and Gregg Thompson's book with your key employees, and talk to them about how to bake coaching into your culture. Your goal should be to have everyone commit to coaching one or two other individuals. Coaching is everyone's business.
You can't leave your coaching plan to change, or assume that you’ll personally be able to coach everyone in your organization forever. Coaching equals growth. It's far too powerful a tool to waste. Don't let it fall through the cracks.
Is coaching built into your organization? Does coaching strongly live within it?
Is coaching only used to fix negative or nonperformance situations in your organization?
Do you and other leaders in the organization have the proper tools/skills to provide great coaching to bring out the best in staff members?
Leaders should ask themselves those questions consistently.
"Coaching" is a framework designed to show you exactly:
Difference between coaching and motivating
Key coaching skills and tactics
How to prepare and execute a coaching session
How to effectively coach and be coached
Coaching mistakes and opportunities
When to coach and signs of great coaching
Strategies to scale coaching across your organization
Throughout the course, you’ll discover best practices you can implement immediately. Each step in the framework is tangible, actionable, and has relatable stories, exercises, and leadership tips.
