Traditional managers rely on control, status, power, information, rules, and procedures. It is human nature to stick with the familiar, play it safe, and not take risks.
Coaching means letting go of the quick fix and focusing on a new mind-set,
developing a long-term approach to working with people.
At one time, the model for managing was “plan, lead, organize, and control.” The words we now need are “empower, influence, facilitate, and coach.” Could your organization benefit from coaches who recognize the possibilities in individuals that they cannot see for themselves and help them reach maximum achievement levels?
