Knowing Bill is all about the job, the other executives gave him pep talks.\u00a0 When the trend continued, the company arranged a formal mentoring relationship.\u00a0 Bill leveled out; he continued to struggle.\u00a0 The Board of Directors started pressuring the executive team as a whole and Bill specifically.<\/p>\n
The company hired an executive coach.\u00a0 The coach served as a sounding board for Bill to brainstorm ideas on how to get back on track.\u00a0 They strategized how Bill could increase engagement and productivity on his team.\u00a0 Bill\u2019s performance improved \u2013 he did not achieve his previous level of performance.<\/p>\n
Bill decided to hire his own coach because he was feeling completely overwhelmed.\u00a0 His new coach used the whole person approach.\u00a0 In their opening session, the coach asked Bill about all areas of his life.\u00a0 In the process, the coach learns what is happening.\u00a0 Bill\u2019s wife had recently died after a long illness.\u00a0 His mom had been helping care for the kids.\u00a0 Unfortunately, she is terminally ill and increasingly less capable.\u00a0 She will need care herself soon.\u00a0 The stresses from his personal life were impacting Bill on the job.<\/p>\n
The coach worked with Bill so he developed a strategy to take care of his family.\u00a0 Bill hired a live-in who could both provide care for his mom and be there for his children.\u00a0 With his family taken care of, he was able to again focus completely when in the office.<\/p>\n
As a result, Bill\u2019s performance at work steadily improved and he again achieved his previous levels of productivity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
