Unit IV Essay Leadership Coaching Plan:
Creating a Mind-Set that Is Ready for Coaching This essay serves as the next section of your Leadership Coaching Plan. In an essay 750 words in length, discuss strategies for leveraging the “use of self” to establish a coaching mind-set, both for the coach and the leader being coached. Incorporate the following in your discussion:
1. Why is it important to create a mind-set that is ready for coaching prior to beginning the coaching experience?
2. Which strategies could you use to equip your own mind-set for coaching and for leveraging the “use of self?”
3. How would you evaluate the “coachability” of the leader?
4. Which strategies could you use, as the coach, to leverage the “use of self” to help the leader prepare his or her mind-set for the coaching experience? Use library sources, along with the unit readings, to support your rationale.
Remember to apply APA style to the essay and to use headings and subheadings throughout. Also, be sure to abide by Waldorf’s Academic Integrity Policy. Information about accessing the Blackboard Grading Rubric for this assignment is provided below.
