Coaching skills in uncertain times

Sudden changes in working conditions, such as the recent unexpected onset of the coronavirus, can create an immediate need for clear and detailed coaching conversations. Given new expectations and requirements, even experienced employees may need more guidance or correction than in the past.

In every management job, coaching challenges occur on a regular basis. But these irregular times are posing new challenges for managers. Since no one is born knowing how to be a coach, managers must learn the specific skills and techniques required to handle these difficult situations effectively.

Join us on April 3rd, for Coaching Skills for Managers & Supervisors and you’ll get specific strategies for conducting a successful coaching discussion, dealing with difficult employees, and following up to ensure success. We’ll also consider what to do when coaching doesn't work.

Your coaching counselor, Marie McIntyre, Phd., will lead you through the following topics:

The 5 most common coaching roadblocks
Quick Quiz: Your personal barriers to coaching
Understanding and using the performance distribution curve
Why "wimpy managers" aren't really managers at all
