Make coaching a core GBS leadership habit, not a luxury
Ever notice how the best leaders don’t give all the answers but ask the right questions? 🤔

In GBS, where transformation is constant, coaching needs to be more than a buzzword. It should be part of how we lead every day.

Here’s why 👇
Coaching builds problem-solvers, not just task-takers.
It helps teams develop self-awareness, confidence, ownership, and decision-making skills.
It fosters trust, which is essential for retention, engagement, and navigating change.

And yes, it’s a game-changer for succession planning.
➤ Leaders who coach are always growing their bench.
➤ They spot potential early and create space for stretch opportunities.

🎯 Try this:
Ask “What’s your next step?” before offering advice.
Hold one coaching-style check-in each week focused on listening.
Identify one team member ready for more and give them a mini project with support.

📈 The payoff:
A stronger, more agile team.
A clear internal pipeline for key roles.
Less disruption when people move on or up.

Coaching isn’t a time drain. It’s talent insurance.
When the need arises, would you have someone ready to step up? 🪜
