Focus on strengths-based coaching to turn around poor engagement

We continue our focus on turning around poor engagement in the workplace. We know that coaching can achieve a 73% improvement in engagement and 36% uplift in performance. In particular using strengths-based conversations.

Furthermore, research says that the 67% of our workforce who are quiet quitting are ‘winnable’. If these employees have a manager who knows how to motivate them.

How to motivate an employee who is quiet quitting?

The big question we get asked is ‘but how do you motivate them?’ We talk a lot about this on our ICF accredited coaching programs and on our Leader as Coach program. The answer is in coaching to strengths.

Strengths are what energises the person to achieve high performance.
A focus on strengths is what motivates people in the workplace.
The research suggests we will see a 73% uplift in engagement.

What does it really mean to focus on strengths? The most common mistake that managers make.

To focus on strengths we have to identify what energises the person. Not just what they are good at. We can be good at part of our role, like compliance or spreadsheets. But that doesn’t mean it energises us. Importantly, is the most common mistake that managers make – to focus on the job competency, rather than on strengths.

How to identify strengths in the workplace?

You can ask great coaching questions. And really take the time to understand what energises your team members. What sparks their interest? Furthermore, what do they find to be most engaging about their work? If not at work, what about outside work?
