Project details

What we need
  • Initial assessment of areas of strength, targets for improvement and specific areas of focus desired for the coaching sessions
  • Up to 6 coaching sessions exploring areas such as motivation, empowerment, collaboration, communication, giving / receiving feedback & conflict management
  • Wrap-up session with actionable steps and advice moving forward as a manager
Additional details

Hello, I am looking to grow as a manager to help lead my team more effectively. I have been managing a staff of 20-25 for the past five years. My current employer has limited coaching opportunities.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a JHANA platform offered by the Covey group, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have some doucments that can be reviwed, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,198 , allowing us to be more in engaged with our residents. Serving the public better.

This project is important because effective leadership and management is critical for the success of any organization. Since I don't have a standardize employee review methodology , I would like have something in place.
