President of a well known non profit organization. Despite her best efforts, she was unable to move the board as a collective, unified group to lead the organization to new levels. Small disputes and differences of opinion had rendered the group unable to listen to each other and decide on a solid course of action to which they were all equally committed. Feeling frustrated, the board president asked me if there was a way I could help her change the situation.

A Gen X’r who had solid producer for her employer for the past 3 years and had recently been promoted department manager. As a rank and file employee, she had been well liked by her coworkers and worked well as a part of a team. However, since becoming a manger, she had been given new benchmarks by which her success was to be measured. She now had to be the team leader rather than a team member.

Inter-personal Skills Coaching
The CEO of a large medical practice He had hired a very bright and talented young physician about 15 months ago. The man’s medical skills were top notch. His customer satisfaction ratings were the lowest of all the staff. Unless this physician was able to improve his relationships with patients, his manager believed he would have to be let go.
No manager wants to let a technically skilled employee go, but poor interpersonal skills can override excellence in technical abilities. During personalized coaching sessions we were able to shift the physician’s thinking so he understood the importance of relating to his patients as people not just a set of symptoms and a chart of results. The following year his patient satisfaction results were in the top half of the practice.
