Coaching for Performance
Let’s face it. We can’t manage someone else’s performance or motivate anybody to do anything. People manage and motivate themselves. If we understand why people do what they do, then we have a better shot at in uencing their choices by modelling the performance standards we want, focusing on what
we want more of, and being increasingly skilled and mindful in our conversations with team members, colleagues, and managers using encouragement, support, guidance and development strategies.
