The one thing you need to have a super-charged career today is – drum roll please – an executive coach. My partners and I have trained hundreds of external and internal coaches who work with people at all levels. I train people to improve their behavior in the workplace – by enrolling them in a simple, yet challenging regimen.

Kill morale, careers, and even a company. Delegation killed morale, careers, and the company. Another advantage was that his direct reports were getting on-the-job training that could help them take on larger responsibilities in the future.

We enlist a friend to join us for yoga class or commit to training for a marathon with a group. This “power of two” thinking works well for overt personal objectives, such as quitting smoking, losing weight, or athletic training, where we’re relying more on moral support rather than instructive coaching, to reach a clearly marked finish line.

While the survey is intended to point out why bosses need to be trained so they can change behavior, the results also may be interpreted to point out why employees need to be trained so they can change behavior. You don’t enhance your career. If you want to talk about depressing topics, why stop at your boss?

All were trained to respond to co-workers using a simple follow-up process. At the end of the training, leaders were asked in a confidential survey if they were going to do what was taught in the program. The training that they attended produced no more change than staying home and watching sitcoms.

It mirrored his training and mindset as an engineer. Why would executives be willing to pull the rip cord on their careers rather than adapt to such a simple routine? My friend and former coaching client Alan Mulally knew this and used his concept of organizational structure when he was CEO of Ford. My only interpretation is ego.
