YOUR MANAGEMENT STYLE

The Coach

You build people who can do it without you.

Your instinct is to ask before you answer, give the why with the what, and say the hard thing early. Your team is learning to solve problems themselves, which is the whole point of the job.

Your strengths

Clear feedback, real delegation and trust that surfaces problems early.

Watch out for

Coaching takes time. Under pressure, check you are still asking questions rather than quietly sliding back into fixing.

TRY THIS WEEK

Spread the stretch work around so more of the team gets coached, not just the people you already rely on.
