Connections with Members

Suggested Strategy: Utilize a Whiteboard Coaching strategy to help the

individual see the progress they need to make to become skilled in

building positive connections with the members they assist. Facilitate

practice conversations for the individual to gain confidence in building

those connections when they do interact with actual members.

Suggested Questions:

→ Hypothetical Question: Hypothetically, if I were to ask you

what percentage of the members you

work with that you think you build

strong connections with, what would

you say and why?

→ Risk Question: What risks do you think you might assume by not building

strong connections with the members

that you assist?

Suggested Activities:

→ Role Play: Facilitate practice conversations as though you were the member, and the employee plays the part of themselves. Have them

practice conversations that can be the start to a strong connection with

you, the member. Use multiple scenarios in which the employee would

have an opportunity to build a connection to the member.
