→ Define & Coach: Building off the whiteboard activity, define exactly
what each behavior looks like in the office. For example, if they say, “I
am best motivated by words of praise”, Define & Coach by coming up
with a shared definition of what those actions should look like.
Suggested Learning Projects:
→ Tangible Successes: Ask your coaching target to come back with
three instances where they succeeded on the definition from the
above activities. Why were these moments successful?
→ Peer-to-Peer Coaching: Ask your coaching target to meet with a new
peer each week to discuss their strategies for working through stagnant
points in their career. What strategies from their peers can your
coaching target implement in their own motivation? Peer work allows
comradery, as well as skill building techniques that may not come to
mind if the individual is working alone.
Supplemental Coaching Strategies:
→ 30-Second Coaching: Let this person know when they are making
positive strides toward the goal of complete success. Take 30 seconds
to tell them specifically what they’ve done well and how their actions are
appreciated by you and the team.
→ Non-Verbal Coaching: Write the individual a note and leave it on their
desk when you notice them exhibiting the behaviors and skills that were
brainstormed in the activities section. Be specific in describing what they
did, when, and why it was appreciated.
