This cast describes the role of Coaching in the Management Trinity, and makes a KEY recommendation regarding development of directs and performance management.
We got a great email recently from a listener asking about how to develop one of the managers in their company. The mail went something like this: "hey guys, love Manager Tools, really like the usability of the recommendations. But need some help. One of our guys has some management responsibilities, and we'd like to help him get better. Wonder if you can recommend some sort of comprehensive coaching program, with some resources or books that we can get him involved in."
This guidance recommends extending short coaching deadlines when your directs show that they can meet them, and keeping deadlines flexible based on performance.
