The Manager as Coach: How to Use Coaching Conversations to Develop Your Team | Ep. #129
Episode 129
Tuesday, 6 January, 2026
In this episode of Building Better Managers, produced by New Level Work, we explore one of the most high-leverage skills a manager can develop: coaching. Coaching isn't about having all the answers—it's about helping your team find their own. By learning how to ask powerful questions, guide problem-solving, and create an environment of trust, you can turn everyday interactions into meaningful development moments. Using the GROW model (Goal, Reality, Options, Will), we walk through how to structure effective coaching conversations and shift from being a task manager to a true people leader. You'll learn: ✅ What coaching actually is (and isn't) ✅ Why coaching is a leadership skill that pays dividends across performance, engagement, and growth ✅ How to apply the GROW model to any conversation ✅ Practical tools to lead with curiosity instead of control ✅ How coaching builds accountability and trust on your team This episode comes with a free resource: 🎁 Download the Coaching Conversation Action Guide 📥 Visit newlevelwork.com to get instant access
