Asking Peers for Input

Suggested Strategy: Utilize Role Play as a strategy to build the

individual’s confidence in asking for input. This is a very difficult thing for

many employees to master, especially after an extended time in their

position, as they create habits and processes over time that are hard to

let another person have input on.

Suggested Questions:

→ Rating Question: On a scale of one to six, with six representing that

you seek input from your peers on a consistent basis, and one being

that you never ask for input, where would you rate yourself and why?

→ Risk Question: What risks do you think you might assume when you

do not seek input from your peers?

→ Self-Actualized Question: What actions are you willing to take to build

on your ability to ask for input from your peers, and what benefits do you

think you may gain by asking them for input?

Suggested Activities:

→ Role Play: Facilitate practice conversations between your coaching

target and yourself acting as their peers in asking for input. After each

practice conversation, ask the individual to give themselves feedback on

what they think they did well in that conversation, what they could

improve for next time, and what actions they will take to make those

improvements.
