Recently, during a workshop, a manager said what many others are thinking: “It’s not all rainbows and lollipops. What if they are under performing? What do you do then?”

The frustration was real, and it is common. This was a manager doing their best to support an employee but unsure what else to try; and they needed more strategies, and wanted to understand how coaching might help.

With this in mind, we continue our focus on annual performance review season in this week’s Coaching Café Pocast.

So far, we’ve explored how these conversations can build engagement in the workplace; frameworks and tips to set up conversations for success; strengths-based conversations and the trickier conversations.

This week, join Natalie and Paula as we explore one of the most challenging topics: how a coaching approach can shift under performance.

You’ll walk away with:

• A coaching mindset/approach to address under performance constructively
• Strategies for reframing these conversations to build ownership
• Practical tools from Open Door you can use immediately

Whether you’re designing performance conversations, coaching managers, or coaching an employee – you will benefit from learning how to coach around under performance.

If you are a regular, you know the vibe and the great contribution that you make to our discussions; so we look forward to welcoming you back and offering you a value-packed 30 minutes each Tuesday.

If you’ve not joined us for a Coaching Café Podcast, now is your opportunity to schedule this time for your professional and personal development. In no time at all, you’ll be looking forward to Tuesdays, just like we all do!

We continue our focus on annual performance review season in this week’s Coaching Café Podcast and how these conversations can build engagement in the workplace. So far, we’ve shared frameworks and tips to set up conversations for success. Now it’s time to talk about the trickier conversations.

A frustrated manager recently asked us:
“What do you do about people who think they’re meeting expectations, but they aren’t?
Or worse, they don’t have goals. They’re not engaged. They’re just working to retirement. You still have to write something on the form!”

We hear this all the time and it’s exactly where coaching can help.

This week, join Natalie and Paula as we explore how a coaching approach can shift even the most challenging performance conversations.

You’ll walk away with:

• An understanding of how/why conversations become difficult
• Strategies for reframing these conversations
• A practical tool from Open Door you can use right away

Whether you’re designing performance conversations, coaching managers, or facing your own review – you will benefit from learning how to coach through the difficult conversations.

If you are a regular, you know the vibe and the great contribution that you make to our discussions; so we look forward to welcoming you back and offering you a value-packed 30 minutes each Tuesday.
