Suggested Activities:
→ Role Play: Practice the art of in-person communication by outlining a
simple task that needs to be communicated. Have the employee be
themselves, and you play the role of a third party. Afterward, discuss
what went well, and what could use improvement for the future. Be sure
to tie this into their overall goals in the company and their success.
Suggested Learning Projects:
→ Journal-Based Coaching: Have your coaching target journal their
progress to reach their goals. Frame this in a weekly format by requiring
them to summarize their thoughts into: two successes, two challenges,
and one observation.
→ Peer-to-Peer Coaching: Pair this employee up with someone they
look up to or aspire to be like in terms of career alignment. Have them
meet once a month to discuss their career goals and challenges they’ve
come across. Have them use their journal as a point of reference for
discussion.
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.
