\"Coaching<\/a>Tracy’s coaching<\/a> client Bill is a senior VP.\u00a0 His climb up the ladder was a result of his talent for doing the work and running a tight ship.\u00a0 In his current position, Bill’s hands-on approach is no longer effective.\u00a0 In a 360 review, feedback indicated he was perceived as a micro-manager.\u00a0 Bill was offered a coach by his company and knew he could benefit<\/a> from the opportunity.<\/p>\n

As Tracy and Bill co-created their coaching relationship, Tracy asked Bill to share a diagram of his team noting direct reports and the people under them.\u00a0 Tracy asked Bill to define the responsibilities of his direct reports and their groups.\u00a0 Tracy then asked Bill to list his responsibilities and estimate how much time each required.\u00a0 With the clear awareness this created, Tracy asked Bill what would happen if he delegated each of his tasks.\u00a0 This gave Bill the insight as to which tasks he was best served to keep and which to start delegating.\u00a0 Then Tracy asked Bill who he could delegate each task to and how that fit with their current work load.<\/p>\n

Bill noted that while certain tasks were logically delegated to certain people, he lacked confidence in their ability to handle the work.\u00a0 Tracy asked Bill about the best and worst possible outcomes if he delegated to them.\u00a0 She also asked Bill what would happen if he did not delegate it to them.\u00a0 Bill decided he was going to begin with delegating where he had the most confidence.\u00a0 Bill then said that in his next coaching<\/a> session he wanted to strategize how he could get the appropriate people up to speed for handling the work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
