→ Whiteboard Coaching: Come up with an action plan of how to make
sure that the employee is addressing all the parts of their job
description, not just what he/she wants to do, which is what most people
tend to gravitate toward. Write out the strategy on a whiteboard where
you will note the ultimate goal to be reached through the strategy you
create together. This provides a visual of the steps to be taken to reach
the goal and makes the process more tangible.
Suggested Learning Projects:
→ Journal-Based Coaching: Ask your coaching target to come back with
three examples of times where they felt they shouldn’t have had to do
something that might be asked of them and why. After they accomplish
whatever it is they were asked to do, have them journal why they might
not have wanted to do that task and note why that task might be
important for their position.
Supplemental Coaching Strategies:
→ Non-Verbal Coaching: Write the employee a note and leave it on their
desk when you notice that he/she is tackling all that is asked of them in
their job based on the description you discussed in your coaching
session – be specific in what they are doing well and why it is
appreciated by you.
