PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT COACHING

OVERVIEW

---

When you receive repeated complaints from clients or staff about a leader's interpersonal relationships, inability to make decisions, lack of organization skills, inability to develop and/or leverage team talent, or other behaviors that lead to lowered morale and productivity, what you may need is performance improvement coaching.

Eunice eases your concerns when you have a problem, have had failed attempts at correcting the problem, and may be running out of time or patience.

Process & Experience

A coaching engagement begins with a sponsor who needs a direct report (coaching client) to change a challenging behavior. Once we set clear goals, the sponsor articulates this intent to the coaching client, secures agreement to the proposed engagement, and is kept apprised of the coaching client's progress.

Eunice confidentially partners with each coaching client to explore internal and external forces that are affecting self-awareness, behavior, perceptions of others, and professional reputation.

Benefits & Outcomes

Clients who actively participate in their coaching program leave with:

• ✔ Openness to blind spots for increased self-awareness
• ✔ Heightened level of social awareness and inclusive behaviors
• ✔ Increased sense of ownership to change and improvement
• ✔ Enhanced listening skills and better ability to resolve conflict with an impartial, proactive mindset
• ✔ More flexible approach to addressing people, problem, and procedures promoting a climate of inclusion, equity, and belonging
• ✔ Truer connection to their role in your organization and increased work satisfaction
• ✔ Stronger commitment to meeting and exceeding expectations
