Coaching Library Staff for Enhanced Performance Webcast

This is a pre-recorded, 30 minute webcast. With our online anytime format, you will immediately receive the link to the webcast, password and the link to the webcast handout upon successful registration. You do not need any special software to view and listen, just a computer! Since passwords are changed frequently, we suggest viewing the webcast as soon as possible after registering.

Description:

Coaching has become an essential skill. In libraries and in the rest of the world, we are being asked to do more with less staff. And demands on our staff are increasing, as well. As supervisors, we need to help our staff overcome hurdles that impact their performance or inhibit them in some way so that we can all be more efficient and effective. From a coaching perspective, what we’re really looking to do is bring out the best in our staff.

In this webcast you will:

Distinguish what coaching is and is not
Identify your own characteristics and attributes of a coach
Learn a three-part coaching model that you can implement right away
