Perhaps you are someone who has experienced the power of coaching and now you would like to use coaching skills in your leadership. But you don’t have the time to invest in an extensive coach training program. After all you love your job and you just want to add the skills, not actually become a certified coach.
If this sounds like you, then I recommend you read ‘The Coaching Habit’ by Michael Bungay Stanier. It is an easy read that will help you make coaching a daily informal part of how you lead, in order to unlock the potential of others. There are 7 chapters that outline 7 essential coaching questions. These questions have the potential to transform your interactions with your staff and team. He also throws in some other valuable coaching tips and focuses on how to build these new learning’s into habits.
If I share anymore here I will give away the content of the book! It doesn’t take long to read but it will change the way you lead. Do add it to your pandemic reading list.
