I hope that you design your own workbook and visual management boards. Making this process your own is how the work is enabled. Most people take a course and download the software or the workbook and try to apply without going through the necessary steps to learn the process. I hope that you have started your experiment, your PDCA cycle in adding these thoughts to your toolbox and the way you do your work. There is a Slideshare presentation on the workbook using this slide deck.

Is it the coach’s job to support the client to achieve happiness and satisfaction or to give the client options from which to choose?

Is it the coach’s job to support the client to achieve happiness and satisfaction or to give the client options from which to choose?
What are the coach’s responsibilities and what are the client’s responsibilities before, during, and after coaching?
Can a coach help the client achieve happiness?
Barry Schwartz’s video Paradox of Choice set an interesting perspective that if you have low expectations you will be happier. That could be understood in the reverse as high achievers have higher levels of frustration because they do have high expectations for themselves and others. People who want to work with a coach are usually high achievers. So what is a Collaborative Coach to do in helping clients’ achieve happiness; help them set low expectations?

How to Create Mentoring Programs That Work | Webinar 05.26.15BizLibrary
So, you think a mentoring program might be a good idea? Or maybe you’ve started one, but it’s lost its steam? Most organizations don’t think of mentoring as a formal strategy. Here’s a question to consider, how much does it cost to lose a professional employee? According to Fortune Magazine it costs $50k to $100k and key leaders cost even more!
Mentoring can help you address key business issues like succession planning, manager and supervisor development, rapid growth, attracting and retaining top talent, training reinforcement and diversity. In this webinar we’ll discuss how mentoring will help you overcome key business challenges and provide 7 key steps to create a program that will actually work and improve organizational productivity and performance.

Final Version, Due Oct 5th,
Description: A 3-5 page professionally-written proposal to a former boss with a plan to address a business-related problem. Proposals take many forms, but generally they describe a problem/identify a need/opportunity; recommend a solution/response; and provide a plan for implementation. (Some suggest several potential solutions/responses and recommend one over the others.)
While many proposals are formal documents authored by consulting companies and used to persuade other organizations to retain their services, less formal proposals, particularly those made by one employee to another inside an organization, abound daily. There are many activities that we may propose others in our organization do in response to a perceived need or problem. For example:
· You could propose your company adopt new technology or conduct research on the customer base.
· Perhaps you believe they should explore the capacity for growth in a certain market sector.
· Perhaps you would like to propose they develop a new product.
· You could propose an employee policy regarding absences/leave or suggest alternatives to scheduling, hiring or training.
· You might have suggestions to curb theft.
· You may have ideas on how to make a process more effective or efficient.
There are limitless problems you may encounter. But there are some very specific and important approaches to formulating your proposal so that it is persuasive and taken seriously by decision-makers. Toward that end, include the following in your proposal.
Make sure your Proposal Contains the following:
A. Current Situation. Introduce the problem to your boss(es). Explain/describe what motivated you to consider the phenomena to be problematic. Provide enough background information to enable a reader who is unfamiliar with the situation to understand the issue, including the negative consequences that this problem incurs. Consider who, what, where, and when to determine if you have provided adequate description of the problem.
B. Goals. Clearly explain the goals of your proposal. This will entail describing the positive consequences from addressing the situation. Frame them in terms of your audience’s goals, not your own. (E.g. If your boss doesn’t care about making computer repair service calls shorter but wants to reduce call-backs from 15% to 3%, then frame the recommendations mainly in these terms, even if your recommendations will improve both time-to-repair and reduce call-backs.)
C. Proposed Methodology (“Implementation Plan”; “Schedule of Events”). Describe how you would improve the problem through a set of recommended steps to lead the organization to meeting their goals. (Remember to frame the recommendations in terms of your audience’s (i.e. bosses’) goals, not yours. See above.) Consider who, what, when, and where for these recommended steps and describe why these changes should be made. Account for Equipment, Facilities, Financial and Other Costs (e.g. disrup ...
