| Leadership and change management are not easy skills to acquire, because they require consistency. Doing the right things week in and week out. It is confusing for employees if initiatives appear 'fads'. Yet managers have a problem with consistency because the 'goals posts' keep moving. As business priorities change, so projects, initiatives and plans change. However, this is all the more reason to be consistent with coaching. It is the one given which is most likely to help individuals understand change. Understanding will lead to involvement. This in turn will lead to commitment and this to motivation. To create the 'virtuous circle' coaching must be an activity for 365 days of the year. |
