"I also consider coaching, or mentoring, to be one of my most important roles.  I coach in many ways:  by modeling behavior; by consistently using rigor and logic to make decisions; by setting realistic, fir expectations; and by providing critical feedback—both constructive criticism when a person is underperforming and appreciation when they have been successful."

Lou Frankfort, CEO and Chairman, Coach, Inc.

Coaching for High Performance - Individual

Coaching for High Performance

About the Program

For managers, one of the most difficult challenges is resolving “people problems,” especially when a direct report’s performance is off the mark. The search for cause often devolves into pointing a finger at the employee; rarely does the manager hold up the mirror to reflect on his or her own performance or to look for causes of underperformance that lie in the work environment.

This session introduces participants to a systematic process for finding the causes of performance deviations and planning for corrective action. For performance issues that require employees to change their behavior, managers will gain the coaching skills needed to become adept at having difficult conversations with employees.

This highly interactive session combines concept briefings, practical exercises, and hands-on application. Participants will come away able to coach effectively; contract with employees for creating goals and changing behavior; and, when needed, involve HR in the process.

Who Should Attend

Any individual responsible for managing the performance of others, whether on a permanent or project basis.
