Thanks Patricia for sharing your frank views about performance coaching. It reminds me of the saying “close the barn door before the cows escape”. Great food for thought.

This is such an important issue. Being called in to ‘fix’ someone isn’t a gig that will work – unless, as you say, the coach is in a position where he/she can really bring people together on what’s really needed (which may be to ‘fix’ the manager!). Handled badly, coaching itself can get a bad name if it becomes associated with ‘failure’ due to it being called in to solve impossible situations. Personally, I’d be very very wary of taking on such a project. It’s really time to check out (as best one can) what the REAL story is, or you’re walking into a hornet’s nest, with you as the fall gal/guy… Give the sponsor of the coaching some options (he/she might not be the manager or potential coachee involved), then sit tight. See what they come up with. If it doesn’t suit you as a coach, go and do something else… Thanks for raising the issue, Patricia. Interesting to hear what other people think. Regards, Alison
