→ Role Play: Use Role Play to practice difficult conversations or tough situation with clients based on the examples previously given by the employee. After the practice, discuss with the employee what they might want to adjust to make the conversation a more positive one for themselves and for the client. → Learning Project Prep: Make the introduction between this employee and two of their peers that do a good job with handling tough clients. Explain that this person will be observing and practicing difficult client interactions once a week with each of them for the next few weeks.

Suggested Learning Projects:

→ Peer-to-Peer Coaching: Have this person practice with and learn from

their peers – two times per week, with the peers that they were

introduced to in your coaching session. They should observe their

peers’ interactions with their clients. Your employee should then journal

their observations regarding how their peers handle tough situations

withclients and what your coaching target thinks they did well, as well as

what could have been improved. Be prepared to discuss journal entries

at your next coaching session.

→ Role Play: After observing a tough client conversation during their

session with a peer, your coaching target can then practice having that

conversation with their peer so that they can build their toolbox with

successful strategies and skills that will help them in their own client

conversations in the future.
