How to Challenge Your Team to Better Performance

In coaching, we often challenge those we are coaching to go beyond what they think they can do, or to get out of their comfort zone in a way we know will benefit them.  If done properly, it can be very effective in encouraging someone to advance. I used challenging previously to effectively help my direct reports grow stronger and take risks they may not have otherwise.  In this episode I share three common ways you can challenge your team members which I encourage you to try over the next week.  You may be surprised by the results! This episode is brought to you by my digital course, The Aid Worker's Guide to Successful Coaching 101.  If you’ve ever wanted to learn how to effectively coach your team to greater performance, this course will teach you how.  My students have reported improved relationships, greater wellbeing, higher team performance and a more motivated team through what they have learned and applied in the course.  If you want to learn more or to enroll, click here.  The next course starts October 4th, and I would love to see you there.
