Synopsis

A truly effective leader is one who accomplishes goals through managing others well. In order to be a leader and not merely a manager, one must lead his or her employees somewhere but where and how? Coaching is the most critical component of staff development. It is the path to growth, goal achievement and success for each member of the team and, ultimately, the leader. The pocket-sized 8-chapter book addresses many oft-stated reasons that she s heard from past clients for not doing coaching: It s difficult to do, there s not enough time, it may hurt the person s feelings, and the I don t know how excuse. Author Brody says there are no reasons for not offering coaching -- managers who don t coach their staff aren t fulfilling their responsibilities as leaders. Her Courageous Coaching book makes it even easier for executives to learn the basics including providing a coaching roadmap to follow: Set Expectations of Others Share Observations/Examples Review Consequences of Action/Inaction Create an Action Plan
