“FAST” Coaching for Busy Managers. If you “don’t have time to coach”, this is a great paper to read, by Michael Bungay Stanier, Author of “The Coaching Habit”. It highlights how critical #coaching is to growing team potential and includes great tips on how to keep coaching even when you feel inundated:
Key tips:
- Start Fast. Use the right questions to identify the issue fast. “What’s on your mind?”, “What should we look at first?”
- Tame your advice monster. Don’t trade curiosity for giving answers. Others don’t grow from this.
- Transform every interaction into a coaching conversation.
- Finish strong. Use reflective questions to effect learning. “What was most useful for you?”. What’s the one thing you will take away?
