Be the "Nutty Shirtless Guy": How to Create a Coaching Movement in Your Organization

Most organizations want their leaders to coach — and it's a great intention. Coaching has the possibility to create real employee engagement and organizational transformation. But true application of a coaching approach is fraught with challenges. It requires widespread adoption of a new approach. In this unconventional webinar, we'll dive in with a senior HR leader to break through the challenges in creating a coaching movement in her organization. And you'll leave with next steps on how to create a movement in your organization... like the nutty shirtless guy. 

"

A leader’s ability to effectively coach others can be a key contributing factor to an organization’s success. In fact, highly effective leaders and employees often have a natural coaching talent, which is one of the primary reasons people enjoy working with them.


But what exactly makes up a coaching culture? Is it the skill-set of active listening? Is it empathetic managers? Is it a safe place to fail?  And, how does a learning and development professional ensure that their coaching culture program will succeed?


If we were to look at any of the leader as coach competencies in isolation, most leaders and managers believe they are already good at “coaching.”  Or, for some of the more “woo-woo” coaching competencies, leaders often argue that the coaching competency is actually problematic.  For example, leaders can make a strong case that the coaching competency of  “multi-level listening” is not only not important for producing results but a hindrance to their ability to be successful and meet deadlines.


Let’s think for just a moment about a few of the qualities of effective leaders that are juxtaposed to the act of multi-level listening (also known as active listening; a key leader as coach competency). 


Effective leaders embrace a bias for action, operate with sense of urgency, and are known for their ability to drive for results.


Now, I want you to tell this leader that consistently gets work done through others and has achieved impressive career success by demonstrating a strong drive for results, to slow it down, stop talking so much, and do a better job at listening to their team.


Furthermore, I want you to imagine suggesting to their supervisor, that you’re training their team to listen to their intuition more confidently.

You want me to do what? That's ridiculous!

Can you see their face now?


In addition to training and practice coaching competencies, an effective coaching culture initiative must also include a methodology for inciting awareness of coaching and the value of coaching, through the actual art of coaching itself.


In other words, a coaching culture is fostered by the act of coaching.  



Many training programs and coaching culture initiatives are conceptually right on the money but fail to deliver because training on coaching skill-sets is insufficient for producing leaders who coach.
