Perhaps the single most overlooked skill set of being a leader is coaching and mentoring.
Somehow the ever-present fires, meetings and management tasks always seem to take precedence over people development and building bench strength on a team. It’s not that leaders feel that developing talent is unimportant. Instead, it is the one skill set that is typically outside their comfort zones. Thus it constantly gets shuffled to the back burner.
Unfortunately, this critical gap creates a multitude of organizational challenges. The vast majority of employee-related issues have a coaching and mentoring component.
Leaders have successfully implemented this process at all levels of the organization and within virtually every industry vertical. If developing a better succession planning process, fostering the growth of high-potential employees, more rapidly bringing people up to speed or curbing excessive turnover in people you don’t want to lose – is a priority, Leading with Motivational Intelligence™ 2: Taking Your MQ to the Next Level will help.
Thank you again for facilitating the training so effectively. The preparation you did really paid off and of course, your presentation style makes all the difference. You kept us totally engaged for the entire day and a half. Everyone was truly moved both professionally and personally, and all said they feel better prepared to attain success this year and in the future. – Sean T., Senior Vice President
