Be sure to listen to Episode 50: How to Shift to a Coaching Culture with Michael if you missed Part 1. In this episode, Michael shares insights into why managers resist coaching, how to overcome their objections, and how to build coaching habits in your organization. He outlines three dysfunctional organizational roles and the one that HR tends to play to its detriment. He’ll share his tips for avoiding the “Drama Triangle” and adopting more ‘coach-like’ behaviors.
