Your Challenge - Coaching and Mentoring

Your Challenge

Challenges for leaders in a coaching or mentoring context can be a powerful way to encourage growth, reflection, and development. Each of the listed challenges is designed to push you out of your comfort zone and encourage you to develop critical leadership skills that will benefit both yourself and the teams.

Choose a Challenge

Challenge One

Select a promising team member and commit to mentoring them for the next six months. Set up regular mentoring sessions, help them set and achieve goals, and provide guidance on their career development.

Challenge Two

Identify a difficult conversation you’ve been avoiding, whether it's giving constructive feedback or addressing a conflict. Prepare for it using a coaching framework, and then have the conversation within the next two weeks.

Challenge Three

Identify a team member that you feel requires coaching to improve their performance. Set up regular coaching sessions, select a coaching model and provide guidance on their development.
