One-on-One Coaching | Road to Revenue #85
There is one aspect where the best coaches are united, and that is through consistency. A good coach is consistent in the time and interest they devote to their \u201cteam\u201d, as well as their behavior, feedback, and the suggestions they give. These coaches don\u2019t let their own issues impact their ability to lead, they can keep these issues separate from their role as a coach.\nNo matter what area of life you are working on improving, a coach is able to help you bring your best on a day-to-day basis. They can inspire you and motivate you as they help you progress towards your goals.\nWhat Skills Make a Good Coach?\nJust like there are myriad types of coaches, there are also a variety of skills that make them great. Some common skills of effective coaches include:\n\nTaking their \u201cleader as coach\u201d role seriously - You can\u2019t be a good coach if you\u2019re don\u2019t care enough to be a leader.\n\nEmotional Intelligence (EQ) and self-awareness - Not only do great coaches understand what drives their team and are able to manage egos and emotions effectively, but they are also self-aware enough to admit mistakes and make adjustments to their plan.\n\nPreparation - A good coach prepares for each coaching opportunity with specific examples or ideas to share and discuss.\n\nKnowing the strengths and weaknesses of their employees or team - Thebest leaders maximize the strengths and can turn weaknesses into strengths by putting their team in the right positions.\n\nTwo-way communication - Not only are good coaches able to make expectations clear to those they work with, but they also listen to others and try to understand their points of view.\n\nOptimistic and motivational perspective - A good coach can find the right amounts of encouragement and optimism to connect with their team when things are easy, and well as when they are hard.\n\n\nTweet me @davidmeltzer your favorite takeaway from today's episode and come ask me questions live every Friday during my Free Weekly Training.
