Coaching turns nit-picking into notable leadership
“Watching how Nancy Eberhardt conducts herself in her relationship with us is a great example for how we should conduct ourselves in our relationships. She demonstrates the best practices for how to behave, communicate and deal with people.”
Situation:
Despite her extraordinary technical skills, an accomplished professional was struggling to forge good connections with teammates and customers. She was perceived as demanding and judgmental. Others were intimidated by her manner and impatient style. She recognized that to be more of an influencer in the organization, she needed to attract more enthusiastic players to her team.
Solution:
Coaching helped her understand the power of respectful communication and strong relationships – and that these elements are just as important to success as her top-notch standards.
Results:
Today, she is a full partner in the firm and a powerful mentor who is regarded as an expert in her field. She is leading some of the most challenging accounts and is more committed to developing her team and organization. Best of all, she’s having more fun and so are the people who work with her.
