The Challenge

Coaching can't just be another task on the list.

Managers are busy — asked to hit goals, manage pipeline, support their team, and solve problems fast. Coaching can become rushed, unclear, or too focused on numbers, looking at the result without coaching the behaviors that caused it. This workshop helps managers slow down, ask better questions, and use coaching conversations to build accountability and action.

!

Focus on results instead of behaviors

Numbers show what happened, but they don't always show what needs to change.

!

Coaching turns into telling

Managers may jump in with answers instead of helping the person think through the situation.

!

Next steps aren't always clear

Without a clear plan, a conversation can feel helpful in the moment but not lead to real change.

!

Coaching gets pushed aside

Schedules, pressure, and urgent work can make coaching feel hard to fit in.

What Participants Say

The Scenario exercise was less meaningful for the second round, as we merely switched positions with our partner and thus already had inside knowledge of the other position, and had also just been through the exact scenario.

Chris E.Targa Resources LLC

The session was good but it did not talk about what happens when coaching doesn?t work. It assumes that coaching is always going to produce the desired effect and we know from experience that it is not often the case.

Charles O.Targa Resources LLC

I think the role playing was very good. It allowed you to experience both sides of the given situation.

Hubbard J.Targa Resources LLC

Engaging and kept attention, also was considerate of scheduled time.

★★★★★

“I am generally apprehensive when attending training/leadership/coaching sessions but felt more relaxed and actually enjoyed participating in these sessions. A huge thanks to the instructor for keeping us all at ease and keeping the lessons fun but still meaningful and thought-provoking.”
