All managers get things done through people, the question is how!

Traditional managers expect compliance. Coaching-managers expect engagement, creativity, responsibility, and ownership.

Coaching is not an isolated practice―it’s a management discipline that can boost both employee development and performance. But many managers are of the opinion that they simply do not have the time to coach each and every one of their employees on a regular basis.

However, ask yourself, “What will it cost in time or money if my employees don’t have a clear view of goals, lack critical skills, or are encountering problems that impede progress?”

Join Dan Rockwell as he explains the differences between coaching-managers and traditional managers and offers advice on how to use a coaching approach to energize and engage your staff.

To motivate their employees, effective managers realize that they must form a partnership with them.

This webcast explores the steps to evolving from a boss into a coach, including:

• Differences between top-down management and coaching management
• The importance of short interactions vs. big, long meetings
• Behaviors which are important for coaching-managers
• How effective feedback is different from “giving instructions”
