Suggested Learning Projects:
Î Journal-Based Coaching: Ask the employee you are coaching to keep a journal over the next week. The entries should include things like details related to actions that this person took to pay great attention to detail while completing a task. They should include how the action had an impact on their work and their confidence in the quality of the work they have completed. Î Peer-to-Peer Coaching: Assign your coaching target to meet with a peer in the coming week. Their meeting should be an interview regarding how their peer stays detail-oriented: what practices do they have in place so that they are sure that each detail is addressed? What benefits does their peer gain when they focus on the details of their projects? The person you are coaching should write down the answers to these questions and be prepared to discuss at your next coaching session.
Supplemental Coaching Strategies:
Î Non-Verbal Coaching: Leave the employee a note when you receive work of theirs where the attention to detail has greatly improved. Let them know specifically what they did well and why you appreciate their efforts. Î Self-Directed Learning: This strategy reinforces the topic that you are coaching to — in this case, attention to detail — and gives the person you are coaching a chance to think inwardly on the task that they are completing. This also provides a level of accountability, as this is a coaching strategy that does not require your attendance.
