Zenger Folkman is always looking for talented, innovative people to join our team.
By Jack Zenger, Joe Folkman, and Kevin Wilde
A good deal of pressure is currently placed on leaders to be better coaches. However, in following that path, leaders are taught to give feedback but seldom how to receive it. A simple Google trends search shows that the search term “How to Give Feedback” outranks “How to Receive Feedback” by 10 to 1. All the focus on the recipient’s success is placed on the shoulders of the coach. Why are we so blatantly ignoring the other half of the coaching equation? All the time and investments in an individual’s training and development hinge on their ability to be COACHABLE. This leadership study explores coachability, how it benefits leaders at every level, and provides a roadmap to guide development.
