    Study Notes

    Coaching Performance-Driven Teams

    • Developing performance-driven teams involves a process of understanding the current state, desired future state, and the path to achieve it. The approach is person-centered, where individuals and teams own the issues, make decisions, and find solutions. The goal is to empower bottom-up contribution.
    • This approach encourages and empowers individuals and teams to identify problems, understand root causes, and develop optimal solutions through experimentation. This contrasts with a traditional command-and-control style.
    • Leaders adopt a specific management style involving active listening, asking guiding questions, and avoiding directing solutions.

    Giving and Receiving Feedback

    • Providing feedback is a crucial leadership skill. The definition ranges from simply replaying a situation to highlighting the impact of an employee's actions and discussing how they can improve.
    • Receiving feedback is an equally vital skill, enabling learning and growth. Effective leaders can take on the roles of both coach and coachee.
    • High-quality feedback is a valuable asset for employees, fostering growth and building capability. A useful tool for giving helpful feedback is the STAR principle.

    Coaching Cycle

    • Coaching is a crucial investment in developing skills. A five-stage cycle to support individuals and teams involves planning, understanding, coaching skills, and feedback
    • Effective coaching requires deliberate planning and time for monitoring and feedback. The coaching cycle involves setting the scene, planning ahead, providing feedback, analyzing, and monitoring.

    Walkabout and Sit-Down Sessions

    • Walkabouts and sit-down sessions are ways for management to interact with employees at different levels.
    • Walkabouts involve visits to the workplace and are intended to better understand the "real facts" from the people who work there, the "real people", in the "real place".
    • Walkabouts and sit-down sessions are valuable for positive engagement, motivation, energizing individuals and teams. These sessions aim to link team and individual goals to company goals.

    Coaching Procedure

    • The criteria for managers involved in coaching sessions include demonstrating respect, listening to different views, and avoiding blaming.
    • The process should involve actively exploring issues and using visuals. This method prioritizes gaining an understanding of team situations.

    • The questions are divided into categories covering team and individual performance, identifying improvements, and establishing effective communication protocols.

    Questioning Principles

    • Questions should be non-judgmental, avoiding implying a correct answer.
    • Questions should be simple and concise, focusing on understanding and encouraging reflection.
    • Questions should be open-ended, encouraging dialogue and exploration instead of closed responses (yes/no).
