Book Catalytic Coaching

Download or read book Catalytic Coaching written by Garold L. Markle and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2000-01-30 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After two decades of hands-on experience with performance management systems in some of the world's most well recognized organizations, Markle has come to propound what he calls a universal law of modern business. People hate performance reviews. Drawing upon his studies of and experience with systems theory and illustrating his points with real-life examples, Markle explains why employees and managers both have come to regard the ubiquitous performance evaluation as industry's poorest performing, most ineffective, and least efficient personnel practice. By digging down to its roots, he helps us understand why attempts to correct the flawed system fail. He provides an innovative way to measure their ineffectiveness and inefficiency and then introduces his catalytic coaching to replace them. Markle shows how his system is superior to others in five key business outcomes: 1) positive behavioral change; 2) motivation to work hard; 3) retention of key contributors; 4) internal promotions and succession; and 5) prevention of and protection from lawsuits. Not only is catalytic coaching more effective, it is also more efficient: it requires far less time and paperwork to implement and maintain. Markle gives his readers all of the forms, instruments and detailed instructions they need to operationalize his system. Business executives, senior HR professionals, and organization development specialists will benefit particularly from his presentation, as will other managers, executives, and supervisors, all of whom must learn to take ownership of their responsibilities to their organizations and themselves.

Book Coaching Up and Down the Generations

Download or read book Coaching Up and Down the Generations written by Lisa Haneberg and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2010-11-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Coaching," Lisa Haneberg says, "is agile, service-oriented persistence with a tolerance for the unexplainable and a willingness to go down a path that is not yours, does not interest you, and requires that you buy new shoes to traverse unharmed." This tongue-in-cheek description suggests the fun and breezy tone of this book. This is most decidedly not just another book about generational differences, nor is it yet another "how to coach" book. Coaching Up and Down the Generations looks at the key processes of transferring knowledge, developing teams, and collaborating, and examines how different age groups can better learn from one another and even experience major breakthroughs that will improve their progress--despite disparate backgrounds. You'll find a thorough examination of key issues in intergenerational coaching situations, including what constitutes great coaching, at any age; a complete overview of each generation and how they view life, technology, work, communication, and behavior; how to handle clashing communication styles and preferences; the importance of "coachability" in yourself and others regardless of different habits, opinions, and work styles; how to cultivate a coaching environment where the different generations can have provocative conversations and truly help one another. With this book as your guide, you can show the generations how to find common points of interest, needs, and goals. You'll find ingenious tips for creating formal and informal coaching situations, developing opportunities to build relationships, and helping people of all ages to become catalytic coaches and engaged performers.

Book excerpt: There's no doubt about it: every conflict in every relationship involves two people with two different perceptions, and every solution requires two partners to arrive at a single shared perception.

He shows you how to use Self-Talk to become a catalyst for change in your relationship by eliminating your contribution to the problem. You'll identify your own personality patterns and use Self-Talk to let go of personal baggage, stop listening to what hurts you, and see the problem as a whole. Next, you'll learn how to apply Catalytic Self-Coaching to your relationship. You'll find out what it means to create a relationship vacuum, and you'll start working with Self + Self = Us Portraits. You'll also discover how to risk trusting each other and to begin coaching each other away from destructive habits and toward a more truthful and loving relationship.

Book Coaching Roi  Delivering Strategic Value Employing Executive Coaching in Defense Acquisition

Download or read book Coaching Roi Delivering Strategic Value Employing Executive Coaching in Defense Acquisition written by Alphronzo Moseley and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-10-13 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alphronzo Moseleys Doctor of Strategic Leadership final project forms the basis for this relevant book, Coaching ROI: Delivering Strategic Value Employing Executive Coaching in Defense Acquisition. Clearly, Moseley has done a very good job of providing a new addition to Defense acquisition studies. Moseley is an executive coach through the Cambridge Group Worldwide, Boston, MA. His research is one taken at Regent University for the purpose of enhancing leadership development among executive acquisition managers to provide a global learning environment to support a mission-ready defense acquisition workforce that develops, delivers, and sustains effective and affordable war-fighting capabilities. The progress for Moseley and his colleagues as executive coaches at DAU is measured according to how well the defense acquisition workforce does its mission. Since the executive coaching initiative is the first of its kind at the university, a level 5 evaluation - the fifth level of evaluating coaching measured by a return on investment (ROI) - would provide a deeper understanding of the sources of business value and especially how coaching creates monetary value in Defense acquisition. The results indicated that the executive coaching program delivered strategic value represented by a conservative ROI of 1,066 percent. Similarly, the coachees and their organizations experienced six business results: increased customer satisfaction, increased resources, increased work-group productivity, reduced cycle time, increased organizational efficiency, and increased personal productivity.

Book ADD Friendly Ways to Organize Your Life

Download or read book ADD Friendly Ways to Organize Your Life written by Judith Kolberg and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-01-04 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 100,000 Copies Sold! Organizing books fall short of addressing the unique needs of adults with ADD. They fail to understand the clinical picture of ADD and how it impacts the organizing process often making their advice irrelevant or frustrating when put into application. Books about ADD may address organization/disorganization but do so in a cursory fashion and on a very small scale in what are usually long books on the subject. This is a book that has ADD-Friendly advice with the ADDer in mind. This collaboration brings forth the best underlying understanding with the most effective and practical remedy from ADD experts in two important fields -- professional organization and clinical psychology. Finally, it offers organizing advice that ranges from self-help to utilizing the help of non-professionals, to using professional assistance. Thus it permits the reader to decide where they are at personally in the organizing process, and what level of support will be most beneficial to their unique situation.

Book Helping People Change

Download or read book Helping People Change written by Richard Boyatzis and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You're trying to help--but is it working? Helping others is a good thing. Often, as a leader, manager, doctor, teacher, or coach, it's central to your job. But even the most well-intentioned efforts to help others can be undermined by a simple truth: We almost always focus on trying to "fix" people, correcting problems or filling the gaps between where they are and where we think they should be. Unfortunately, this doesn't work well, if at all, to inspire sustained learning or positive change. There's a better way. In this powerful, practical book, emotional intelligence expert Richard Boyatzis and Weatherhead School of Management colleagues Melvin Smith and Ellen Van Oosten present a clear and hopeful message. The way to help someone learn and change, they say, cannot be focused primarily on fixing problems, but instead must connect to that person's positive vision of themselves or an inspiring dream or goal they've long held. This is what great coaches do--they know that people draw energy from their visions and dreams, and that same energy sustains their efforts to change, even through difficult times. In contrast, problem-centered approaches trigger physiological responses that make a person defensive and less open to new ideas. The authors use rich and moving real-life stories, as well as decades of original research, to show how this distinctively positive mode of coaching—what they call "coaching with compassion"--opens people up to thinking creatively and helps them to learn and grow in meaningful and sustainable ways. Filled with probing questions and exercises that encourage self-reflection, Helping People Change will forever alter the way all of us think about and practice what we do when we try to help.
