What is the definition of a coach?
How do I recognize and begin to coach anyone UP?
Why should I continue to coach?
Coach Me Up reveals how being "coached up" can be done within any context or activity. It shares stories on the importance of being present as a coach so you can identify when an individual is confused about their next steps, recognize who on your team is coachable, and create coaching strategies for bringing the uncoachable up to a performance that contributes to the advancement of the team and the individual. So step up to the plate and become the best coach you can be.
