Derailment Coaching

 

 What can be done with an under performing employee or one who just doesn’t seem to understand that a dramatic change in workplace behavior is required immediately? Too often, the response is termination.  This can lead to high exit costs; lost continuity, training, and development costs; lower team morale; possible termination litigation; and recruiting, hiring, and retraining costs or performance “friction” created by reshuffling staff and positions.

There is a much more efficient and effective alternative available under the right circumstances. A derailment coaching program can produce much better results. In most cases underperformance is not due to an ability gap. Rather, it is often attributable to an employee who is:

  • Insensitive or isolated
  • Too cautious and risk averse
  • Too detail-oriented and lacking strategic grounding
  • Overly dependent on one skill
  • Not skilled in adapting to different management styles
  • A poor communicator
  • Too inclined to staff in his or her image.

Career Potentials coaches address these issues through a combination of assessment, 360 degree feedback, building rapport and credibility with the client, creating an accelerated development program, and eliciting true behavioral change. Said differently, we perform a four step process to assess, plan, act, and refine with the aim of rebuilding the confidence and credibility of your employee.

Let us help you restore the performance of key contributors and optimize their potential before you resort to a costly, difficult, and irreversible termination process.  Derailment Coaching is a specific application of our Rational Coaching process.  The Rational Coaching process is suitable for a use in wide range of coaching situations.
