Hello
Does This Sound Like Somebody You Work With?
Maybe your team member:
-
Is driven, determined and ambitious?
-
Is great at delivering results and hitting targets?
-
Has been promoted and rewarded on the back of those results?
-
Is highly valued by the business in relation to their contribution to the bottom line?
-
Maybe they are in fact, a bit of a golden star?
So what's the problem?
If you are looking into coaching then I'm guessing something is niggling you?
-
Maybe that high achiever in your team can be tricky to work with?
-
Maybe they are demanding and forthright?
-
Could they lack the respect of their colleagues, being seen as hierarchical and superior instead?
-
Do they consider their own self-interests ahead of what is best for the team or the organisation?
-
Maybe they do not listen to your suggestions on how they could develop?
-
They could even seem quite arrogant and self-serving?
For whatever reason, you are concerned about rewarding or recognising this person further at this time. However, they are important to the business, so what to do?
How I can Help?
For high achievers, the problem is often realising that when you get past a certain level, the delivery of results alone is not enough!
Instead, these individuals need to develop the skills that organisations seek in their senior team.
They need to recognise the importance of relationships with people at all levels, they need to be strategic in their outlook and consider the commercial benefits of their actions; and they need to recognise that how they land with other people and the effort they place in managing that perception, is crucial to their future success.
They need to be :
A
Leadership Ninja
A
Personal Brand Sorcerer
A
People
Addict
Have you offered your golden star the opportunity to develop in these areas?
Have you been clear about what the business needs from them?
To become a truly valuable asset to your team, your high achiever needs to recognise the gap in their skill base and then develop the missing attributes.
I understand this challenge and specialise in coaching individuals facing this journey every day.
Coaching can help them to identify and develop the skills they need to become the "natural choice" for that next step.
How would it be if your organisation developed:
-
An experienced deliverer WITH leadership skills?
-
An individual who was committed, loyal and passionate?
-
Somebody who was was seen as having respect and gravitas throughout the business?
-
A skilled people expert who was adept at stakeholder management and relationship optimisation?
