Solve the 3 typical myth for managers:
 
- Can only be a judge, not a coach
Symptom: I repeatedly tell subordinates that it’s “wrong”, but the result keeps the same
Gap: Subordinates only receive (negative) evaluation instead of coaching

- Conversation is out of focus and fails to ensure performance improvement
Symptom: The conversation sometimes hit the point and sometimes fails.
Gap: The conversation should be based on “performance” and centered around “Goal-Gap-Behavior”

- Be able to “coach” some subordinates, but fail to “coach” some others

tough challenge
