Coaching is not just for
coaches. When everybody within an organization learns and develops coaching
skills, its culture begins to change. The exchange of meaningful and actionable
feedback becomes the norm and not something that only occurs during annual
performance appraisals. The willingness to share insights and ideas becomes
accepted and expected at all levels?up, down, and across.
Virginia Bianco-Mathis
and Lisa Nabors believe everyone in an organization can master a new
language?dialogue?and use it in the service of excellence and continuous
learning. Everyday Coaching endorses
the idea that by improving coaching dialogue skills, people will show up, every
day, knowing that what they say and do makes a
difference.
Through practical tips
and examples, Everyday Coaching
demonstrates the difference between conversations and true dialogue: the power
of using the language of coaching to achieve expectations, personal growth, and
overall strategic success. With an easy-to-use coaching model, you can practice
formally or informally giving feedback, making agreements, and guiding behavior.
In this book, you'll
learn to:
·
Use coaching to create a culture of
collaboration.
·
Inspire meetings and agendas with more
purposeful conversations.
·
Embody coaching as a normal way of going
about continuous improvement.
Not everyone is a
professional coach. But with Everyday
Coaching everyone can take the best of what coaching has to offer?the
dialogue, tools, and mindset?and leverage it to transform themselves and their
organization.
