Ep. 6 - Beyond One-and-Done: Why Ongoing Coaching Matters
Manage episode 509501073 series 3684313
Too often, leadership training is treated like a “one-and-done” event. You sit through a workshop, leave with notes, and then daily fires quickly push those lessons aside. In this episode of Lead Through IT, Jada and Kim dig into why that model doesn’t work—and how ongoing coaching creates lasting change.
They break down:
- Why skills fade without reinforcement and real-world practice
- How to build coaching moments into the everyday flow of work
- Simple strategies to create consistency without overwhelming busy managers
- The cultural and business impact of leaders who prioritize continuous development
It’s not about adding more to your plate—it’s about making coaching part of how you lead. Their conversation highlights that coaching is less about formal programs and more about steady, supportive touchpoints that drive growth over time.
A recent ATD study backs this up: most managers say they don’t have time to participate in training, yet the organizations seeing the biggest results are those that use pre- and post-training activities, bite-sized learning, and ongoing coaching to reinforce new skills (read more on HR Dive).
If today’s conversation resonated, connect with us and be part of the community of leaders who refuse to lead alone.
