Mentoring Matters
Quit Bossing and Start Coaching
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode we discuss the traits we've appreciated in our best bosses, and why those bosses might have actually been our best coaches. We talk about tips for figuring out how to be a better boss/coach for our team.
Highlights:
We don't want a boss, we want a coach.
We want a purpose, and we'd like it to align with our values.
Recognition is important (stay tuned for a future episode on this topic!)
