As a manager, you’re the most important contributing factor to your organisation’s success.
You hold a lot of responsibility – for your own performance, for each team member’s performance, the team’s collective performance, plus a whole load more.
The results of large-scale opinion surveys show that employees expect their managers to:
- see and know what’s going on in their organisation and team
- develop or convey a clear and compelling strategic vision for their team
- win team-buy-in into this vision and have their team align it with their work
- discover and utilise the strengths and natural talents of their staff
- provide their team with the necessary tools, resources, clarity, expertise and guidance to do their jobs
- support, counsel, engage, motivate, coach and develop their teams
- shield them from above, provide them with opportunities & visibility and publicise their work
- create psychological safety within the team and create a local cultural model in line with an institution’s values
- meet business delivery expectations
- manage change, conflict, problem-solve, be adaptable and collect feedback
- recruit new team members
- reach out to and negotiate with suppliers, peers, stakeholders, senior managers, teams, administration and security services
- build the top line and keep within the bottom line of the area budget
- … and more….
That’s a heavy list for anyone to be trying to carry on their shoulders.
That’s why supporting managers is central to my coaching practice.
Great managers tend to be strengths-based, engagement focused and performance orientated.
As a manager, in coaching we’ll seek an individualised approach for you (and when relevant, also your team):
- What specific problems do you face in your role as a manager?
- Would you value some dedicated time to explore and reinforce your natural strengths and management style?
- Perhaps you want to address a weakness?
- Do you want to increase the engagement of your team?
- Want to learn more about the individual strengths and talents of your team members and how they combine into team performance?
- Are you seeking to build trust, share opinions, clarify expectations & needs, make decisions, recognise contributions, and/or move from resisting change to leading it?
- Does your team suffer from weaknesses in its strategy, its relationships, its processes, or its execution?
