Avoiding Distractions
Suggested Strategy: Use Journal-Based Coaching to provide tangible
success for the employee to track as they progress.
Suggested Questions:
→ Permission-Based Question + The Sword: Because I want to see
you become successful in your position, with your permission I would
like to share some observations with you so that I don’t make
assumptions, because that would be unfair to you. (When
permission is granted) It is my perception that you struggle
occasionally with avoiding distractions during the workday.
→ Self-Actualized Question: What actions will you commit to taking in
order to successfully avoid distractions during the workday?
Suggested Activities:
→ Whiteboard Coaching: On the left side of a whiteboard, write down
how this person thinks that their peers would currently describe their
ability to avoid distractions. On the right side of the board, write down
how they would ideally like their peers to describe their ability to avoid
distractions. Erase the left side of the board and write down the
actions that they are willing to take to reach the description on the
right side of the board.
