Coaching for Improved Performance
Executive Summary: Looking for improved performance and better coaching? Since Robin submitted this article for publication, I asked two managers in one of my client companies to use his approach in talking with several employees who needed to improve their performance. The meetings were positive and I believe we will see their performance improve within the ninety day agreement. Both managers were very comfortable using Robin's recommended approach.
Why don't you decide to try it, too? You'll be happy you did. (Executive Summary by Susan Heathfield)I've always regarded problems as opportunities to do better,christian louboutin uk, gain experience,christian louboutin outlet, and learn more,air jordan 1, just to be a little bit smarter and perhaps "street wise" on how to handle life issues and situations. After all, we learn best,scarpe hogan, not by being taught and not by studying or reading, but by experiencing and then reflecting on what we did and what happened and then drawing conclusions and experimenting.
As a coach, I've practiced this method with considerable success. If we don't learn from the past, we are doomed to repeat the same mistakes and have the same problems over and over again. Then, we'll never grow and develop as a person; we'll effectively stagnate both emotionally and intellectually.
Kolb's Learning Cycle Expanded
In my coaching I have advocated and expanded David Kolb's Learning Cycle:
Life gives us "gifts" in the form of opportunities to have EXPERIENCES.
Coaching provides the opportunity to get FEEDBACK from these experiences this is achieved by questioning and clarifying.
Further probing and questioning creates insights and common themes which lead to the learner REFLECTING on the experiences,chaussure Louboutin pas cher, the action that was taken and the consequences of this action.
From these insights and personal discoveries, CONCLUSIONS are drawn that, if sufficiently powerful,Louboutin pas cher femme, can relate back to other current or past situations.
The valuable lessons learned from this exercise are then applied to future situations in the form of EXPERIMENTS,Louboutin pas cher homme.
From these experiments, EXPERIENCES are provided as well as further opportunities to learn more and the cycle goes around again.
I have found that Kolb's learning cycle becomes so much more effective when approached from a coaching perspective.
