02 Feb Coaching For Confidence
An MD had a talented leader who had worked for her for a number of years. Recently she had noticed the employee had lost motivation and appeared to have lost confidence.
We started by understanding the background to the situation and I worked with the employee, which gave us both a better understanding of the circumstances.
The employee had self confidence and didn’t feel as competent as her colleagues in similar roles and this made her feel like she wasn’t being taken seriously. This then had a knock on effect on her decision making which was slowing things up for her and her colleagues at work. We went on to explore the communication breakdown between her and her MD, which had led to her avoiding contact.
We worked through her concerns, identifying the barriers, areas for improvement and then put an action plan and personal tool kit in place with achievable goals. We also discussed her future and how her action now would pave the way for her future growth.
Trust and communications improved, and she started to regain her confidence. She was soon back to her energetic self, and able to make quick decisions. Within twelve months she was promoted and now coaches her team ensuring they too have a toolkit for career growth.
