DEVELOPING OTHERS TOOLS AND STRATEGIES 235<br />

ACCOUNTABILITIES<br />

• What metrics do you have to measure the desired results?<br />

• How will you know if they are being successful or not?<br />

• When and where will they be measured?<br />

• Others also act as accountabilities (e.g., executive feedback).<br />

IMPACTS<br />

What are the positive impacts on you, the team, and the individual<br />

from achieving the desired results? For example: More challenging<br />

projects, better leadership, eligible for more training, make<br />

budget, quality product, helping the team, more respect, and progress<br />

in their career goals.<br />

NEGATIVE IMPACTS: The opposite of the positive ones given<br />

above. It’s better to talk about them before negative consequences<br />

happen.<br />

QUESTIONS AND ACTION APPLICATIONS<br />

• Try out the delegation steps when you next delegate.<br />

• Get feedback on how the delegation went.<br />

• Ask if there is a way you could be clearer in the next<br />

delegation.<br />

• Encourage your direct reports to use the delegation steps<br />

when they delegate to others.<br />

9. COACHING FOR PERFORMANCE<br />

This model has been used for almost 20 years as a way of developing<br />

people. When coaching, it is important that you save your<br />

advice or feedback until the end of your session. Often people<br />

are not looking for expert advice, but instead want validation or<br />

acknowledgment for what they are already doing. Many leaders miss<br />

this and go right to Step Five, advice!
