Coaching Skills for Supervisors: How to Motivate Like a Coach and Still Manage Like a Boss

While it may be true that you are the “boss,” or otherwise have formal authority in your particular situation, it’s a fact that you’ll be more effective if employees also see you as a leader. And, for that to happen, they need to see you as a coach – not just any coach, but their coach. You need them to see you as someone who is committed to helping them grow and develop while also looking out for the best interests of the overall team and the organization.

And, of course, the only way your team members will see you as a coach is if you act like one. Fortunately, the skills necessary to coach effectively aren’t hard to master, once you know what they are. Attend this informative training session and learn what separates bosses from coaches and discover how to incorporate effective coaching strategies into your relationships with your employees at all levels.

If you want to be a great manager or HR professional, it’s important that your employees don’t just see you as a boss. If your employees perceive you solely as a “boss” – and not as a coach, that can set the stage for an adversarial ‘us versus them’ dynamic in the relationship. Such a dynamic doesn’t lead to the most productive or effective work environment, and it can keep individual employees – and teams – from reaching their full potential.

In today's fast-changing workplaces, supervisors do more than just manage people. They're also expected to be like coaches. This means they need skills to inspire and help their teams grow. Instead of just telling people what to do, supervisors now guide and support them to do their best work. This change is happening because we've realized that being too bossy doesn't always make employees happy or productive.

Coaching skills give supervisors the tools to create a work environment where everyone can improve. Employees feel encouraged to do their best, take charge of their work, and contribute to the company's goals. By using coaching methods, supervisors can use their leadership roles to help team members succeed both individually and as a group.
