Few of us enjoy making difficult choices about the workforce—especially when it comes to downsizings or terminations. However, when respect, compassion, and appropriate resources accompany those decisions, it creates stronger outcomes for all involved. The right outplacement support is one important factor to consider. #NavigateForward #HumanResources #Outplacement We’re looking at the best practices in this article: https://lnkd.in/g6Ha4BXR

Many of my coaching clients have difficulty letting go of things, whether it's anger at people who may have harmed them, sadness over a job loss, expectations of how things "should" have been, or regrets about past choices or actions. Addressing the habit of ruminating and dealing with unresolved emotions once and for all will pay dividends. This article offers a useful framework for those who struggle to let go. Take a look to see if anything strikes a chord.  https://lnkd.in/ggiuVucW

There are some valuable insights in Gartner's Future of Work research. I appreciate this shift from an 'office-centric design' to a more 'human-centric design' focused on flexibility, empathy, and intentional collaboration. "Historically managers relied on seeing their employees in person to guide their management style. But now, with hybrid work, visibility is more limited." Organizations need to develop creative, non-intrusive ways to bridge that gap, giving managers more visibility - based on trust, autonomy, and empathy. "Empathetic managers have a big impact on employee performance, but it’s even better when empathy is built into the overall company culture and approach to work."

Generic self-development coaching is hardly comparable to Emotional Intelligence executive coaching for leadership or physician burnout. For executive coaching services procured by organizations like Loudoun County, the payee (coaching firm) typically proposes pricing structures and rates, which the contracting organization negotiates and agrees upon. Specifically, the RFP requires the coaching firm to provide the cost to administer 360 leadership assessments for around 100 leaders. Cost for group assessment interpretation sessions for groups of up to 20 leaders Hourly rate for individual coaching services. The organization will be billed for any other expenses. This indicates that while the coaching firm proposes pricing, the contracting organization has the final say in determining reasonable rates for the required services. The results do not explicitly differentiate between life coaching for personal development and executive/leadership coaching. However, it is sensible to expect pricing structures to differ based on the coaching objectives, target audience, and specific services provided. Organizations would likely negotiate appropriate rates commensurate with the value and complexity of the coaching engagement. In summary, while the payee (coaching firm) can propose pricing, the contracting organization ultimately determines reasonable rates for the coaching services based on their requirements and budget constraints. In contrast, generic coaching for personal development is unlikely to produce the level of income that is typical for niche coaching for leadership, burnout or disruptive behavior.

🔊 As promised… an update on our 📸 selfie experiment from my conversation on The Power of Socialization and Learning and how we scale that AML RightSource : ⏱️ 48 hours into this conversation… we have 4,799 Impressions from our Future of Learning Selfie post. 🗣️Over ~30 L&D leaders reached out to me directly to deepen the conversation on socialization and learning… asking for practical techniques they can implement TODAY, in their organization. And I happily provided 😊! #shareknowledge 📈How else has this information scaled? ❓Would this have happened, would that learning be activated… if there wasn’t an easy on-ramp for all these brilliant learning leaders? 🧐Would it have happened if their social brain wasn’t activated to be engaged and motivated? Maybe on a smaller scale? 🎯Socialization is an essential and strategic component to learning. 🙋🏼‍♀️Just ask 9 year old Jessie #iykyk 😂 Thank you M-Media Events for having me! #futureoflearning #learninganddevelopment #globallearning

Is it possible to disagree respectfully with someone who is more senior than you at work? This is a common #communication challenge among Spoken with Authority clients. Our Coach Michele Morrissey, M.A., CCC-SLP recently shared this useful piece on the topic with a coaching client: https://lnkd.in/e3FKgFWs Here's a great summary of the article (direct quotation): "Do: - Explain that you have a different opinion and ask if you can voice it. - Restate the original point of view or decision so it’s clear you understand it. - Speak slowly — talking in an even tone calms you and the other person down. Don’t: - Assume that disagreeing is going to damage your relationship or career — the consequences are often less dramatic than we think. - State your opinions as facts; simply express your point of view and be open to dialogue. - Use judgment words, such as “hasty,” “foolish,” or “wrong,” that might upset or incite your counterpart." Have you tried any of these strategies or do have you had success with other approaches? Please share in comments.
