Performance Management
Introducing the G.R.O.W. Model
• Goal setting: goals (expectations) must be set in order to give direction and purpose to coaching.
• Reality check: both you and your employee must come to terms on the current state or level of performance or any issues that are causing breakdowns.
• Options developed: you and your employee explore action steps that will help them improve their performance.
• Wrap it up with a plan: once you nail down an option or two, it is time to strike it down on paper so to speak.
How Does This Apply to You?
Identifying Appropriate Goal Areas
Here are some questions you should ask:• What does success look like?• What goals are you working on right now?• Where are you in relation to those goals?• What do you think is keeping you from
reaching this goal?• How will you know you reached that goal?
Identify the Current Reality
• Identify obstacles: Have a frank discussion with your employee and determine what is blocking their performance.
• Root out the cause: Many times underlying emotions or problems may be the cause of the obstacles. Ask probing questions.
• Antidote: A remedy to the situation is needed in order to get past this obstacle. Brainstorm with your employee on ways to remove the obstacles.
Explore Options Together
Working together…• Identifies Better Ideas: some employees struggle
when it comes to their own development• Builds Buy-in: you want your employees to own
their improvement • Ensures Professional Growth: because the
options developed will have more meaning and lasting commitment
Wrap-Up: Creating a Plan
• Learn: some form of learning should take place. • Apply: implement what was learned soon after
learning is completed. • Measure: agree on a method of measuring
when and how the new learning is used on the job.
• Assess: review the impact of the new skill on the performance metric being improved.
Coaching Competence & Trust
• Trust is built over time and is accomplished through your actions.
• Trust, in the realm of coaching, could be defined as the ability to instill confidence, and reliance in you by being fair, truthful, honorable, and competent in what you do as a manager.
• Lacking in any of these areas could hinder you instilling trust into your employees.
