coaching
The coaching session today has helped me in better understanding that when people need support, it is important to do not give the easiest answer (solution). Instead, the most important thing that we can do is helping them in finding their solution. In fact, if we want to offer an effective contribute when helping our colleagues, it is crucial to actively listening them and avoiding putting in their mouth our words. Since as Graeme said today: “Who has the problem own the content”; therefore, it is truly crucial giving them what they need and not what we want. This, is an important concept to apply in the context of leadership, since effective leader are committed in improving the capabilities of their followers, thus, coaching them is one piece of the bigger picture.
