First Coaching Session

I had my first performance coaching session with Nicole today.  Nicole was sensational.  Her messages and stories were powerful.  It was a great conversation from which I learned plenty.  I’m already looking forward to speaking with her next time.  Some of the highlights and takeaway messages are:

  • You can’t force people to follow you.  You have to earn people’s trust so that they are willing to follow you.
  • Conflict is healthy.  What we need is better managing conflict in a project team environment so that productivity can be maximized.
  • Situational leadership is understanding individual’s desire and what makes them tick so that positive relationships can be built and maintained.
