To maximize your coaching performance, implementing a regular feedback loop is crucial. Unlike annual evaluations, these weekly reviews put you in control of your day-to-day progress. Most high performers adopt this practice to stay on track consistently.
Start by dedicating a specific time each week, even if it’s just 10-20 minutes, for self-reflection and planning. This habit, often overlooked due to busy schedules, is essential for sustained success.
Key principles for an effective weekly review:
Schedule Time: Block out a recurring slot on your calendar for your review session. Whether it’s on Fridays or another day, make it non-negotiable.
Dedicated Journal: Use a separate journal solely for performance reviews. This eliminates distractions and keeps your focus on self-improvement.
Scoring System: Score your performance in key areas using a simple 1-10 scale. Assess your roles (e.g., coach, spouse), progress towards goals, and performance drivers (e.g., clarity, energy).
This review process cultivates self-awareness, guiding your actions throughout the week. By setting intentions, pursuing initiatives, and forming habits, you’ll steadily progress towards your desired outcomes.
Committing to this practice can significantly enhance your coaching effectiveness over time. Embrace this proactive approach to stay ahead in your field. If you have any questions or feedback, feel free to reach out to Mandy at mandy@busy.coach.
