1. What
type
of
coaching
function
was
reflected
in
Rowe’s
meeting
with
Busche?
Rowe
appears
to
be
providing
the
coaching
function
of
counseling
when
talking
with
Busche
in
this
meeting.
According
to
the
text,
counseling
is
“helping
an
individual
recognize,
talk
about,
and
solve
either
real
or
perceived
problems
that
affect
performance”
(p.
334).
During
the
conversation,
Rowe
stated
that
she
was
disappointed
with
Busche’s
outcome
of
a
recent
and
important
project,
but
did
not
focus
solely
on
that.
Rowe
had
perceived
that
there
was
external
factor
that
contributed
to
Busche’s
poor
performance,
because
a
poor
project
was
not
normal
behavior
for
Busche.
When
Rowe
asked
if
there
was
something
that
affected
the
project’s
success
Busche
was
able
to
be
honest
with
Rowe
about
his
demanding
work-‐load.
Because
of
this,
Rowe
has
asked
Busche
to
be
honest
with
her
about
his
workload
for
the
next
month
and
not
to
feel
pressured
to
say
“yes”
to
all
projects
if
he
does
not
have
adequate
to
complete
them
with
good
quality.
2. In
terms
of
effectiveness
on
a
1
–
10
scale,
with
1
being
“poor”
and
10
being
“excellent,”
what
score
would
you
assign
to
Rowe’s
handling
of
the
session?
Why?
I
would
assign
Rowe
a
score
of
seven
(7)
in
regard
to
her
level
of
effectiveness
during
this
meeting.
At
the
beginning
of
the
meeting,
I
feel
that
Rowe
was
somewhat
aggressive
toward
Busche
when
stating
that
she
was
embarrassed
about
Busche’s
work.
While
she
did
use
an
“I”
message
in
her
first
sentence,
she
was
very
“frank”
about
the
issue
(which
was
obviously
stated
in
the
discussion).
Being
first
to
speak,
she
pinpointed
(p.337)
all
that
was
wrong
with
the
project
at
hand.
This
was
not
necessarily
wrong.
Being
specific
about
the
problems
with
the
report
will
be
helpful
when
it
comes
to
improving
it;
however,
beginning
with
this
put
Busche
in
a
defensive
state.
In
response
to
Busche’s
defensive
reaction,
Rowe
needed
to
take
a
step
back
and
express
her
concern
with
more
“I”
messages
than
her
first
approach.
With
that,
Busche
was
able
to
be
more
honest
and
open
with
Rowe
about
his
feelings
on
the
project
and
why
it
was
not
up
to
par.
Throughout
the
conversation
Rowe
then
used
probing
and
reflecting
(p.
337)
to
gain
more
information
about
why
Busche’s
project
was
not
of
high
quality,
and
that
she
understood
it.
She
was
able
to
discover
the
Busche
was
stretched
thin
with
responsibilities.
While
doing
this,
she
also
affirmed
(p.
337)
Busche
a
few
times
stating
his
work
is
always
excellent
and
his
skills
are
valued
at
the
company,
which
I
feel
put
Busche
at
ease
throughout
the
conversation.
In
the
end,
Rowe
used
confirming
(p.
337)
to
make
sure
that
she
and
Busche
were
on
the
same
page
with
their
plan
of
action.
This
plan
was
to
ensure
that
the
two
communicated
in
a
better
way
about
work-‐load
and
expectations
so
as
to
avoid
a
situation
like
this
one
in
the
future.

Overall,
Rowe
did
an
effective
job
during
this
conversation;
however,
in
the
future,
I
feel
she
should
begin
the
conversation
in
a
more
gentle
way.
Perhaps
starting
with
a
probing
technique
rather
than
pinpointing
would
keep
a
calmer
atmosphere
throughout
the
duration
of
the
discussion.
3. Identify
specific
transcript
comments
by
Rowe
that
reflect
the
following
coaching
skills:
(a)
reflecting,
(b)
pinpointing,
(c)
probing,
(d)
affirming,
and
(e)
confirming.
(a) Reflecting
• Rowe
6:
“So
you
didn’t
get
to
put
in
the
time
on
the
report….”
• Rowe
7:
“It
sounds
as
if
the
quality
report
is
only
part
of
the
problem.”
(b) Pinpointing
• Rowe3:
“For
one
thing,
it
seemed
superficial
in
that
it
described
only
a
few
of
the
programs
we’d
benchmarked,
rather
than
all
seven.
Since
this
will
be
the
major
document
the
committee
will
be
using
as
a
reference,
we
needed
coverage
of
all
the
visits
we’ve
made.
Also,
some
of
the
most
important
processes
were
not
included—
like
J&J’s
360-‐degree
feedback
system
and
Motorola’s
team
incentives.”
(c) Probing
• Rowe
5:
“You
weren’t
please
with
it
yourself?”
• Rowe
9:
“Is
additional
help
the
answer?”
(d) Affirming
• Rowe
4:
“You’ve
always
done
exceptional
work
in
putting
together
material
like
this
for
me.”
• Rowe
10:
“I
think
it’s
terrific
that
Bushman
values
your
abilities.
Politically,
it’s
in
both
of
our
interest
for
you
to
ask
as
Bushman’s
facilitator.”
(e) Confirming
• Rowe
12:
“Okay,
let’s
give
this
a
try.
You’ll
give
me
a
brief
typed
report
on
projects
other
than
normal
training
and
safety
activities.
If
you’re
skeptical
about
a
commitment
request
from
outside
the
department,
you’ll
discuss
it
with
me
before
taking
it
on.
You’re
also
agreeing
to
level
with
me
about
whether
you
have
time
to
commit
to
special
projects
that
I
throw
your
way.
We’ll
try
this
process
for
a
month
and
see
what
happens.
Is
that
acceptable?”
4. To
what
extent
did
the
meeting
reflect
the
seven
suggestions
for
confronting
poor
performance
(Exhibit
11-‐4)?
Of
the
seven
suggestions
in
Exhibit
11-‐4
(p.
339),
it
is
my
opinion
that
all
seven
were
used
in
the
conversation
between
Rowe
and
Busche.
First,
Rowe
described
the
performance
situation
in
detail
at
the
beginning
of
the
conversation
and
used
pinpointing
to
be
specific
about
the
issues
with
the
report
at
hand1.
Rowe
asked
for
Busche’s
perspective
on
the
problem2,
which
she
received—that
he
had
too
much
to
do,
which
caused
the
report
to
suffer.
After
a
brief
discussion
on
why
the
report
was
not
up
to
standard,
both
came
to
the
agreement
that
Busche
did
not
have
sufficient
time
to
complete
the
project
with
the
highest
quality
possible3.

When
determining
a
solution
to
prevent
this
type
of
situation
in
the
future,
Rowe
sought
Busche’s
opinion
on
what
would
be
an
effective
approach4.
With
that,
they
both
agreed
on
a
plan
to
communicate
better5.
Rowe
ended
the
conversation
summarizing
the
plan
they
would
work
with6;
this
would
start
with
Busche
submitting
a
report
with
a
list
of
all
extra
projects
he
was
working
on.
A
follow-‐up
was
also
scheduled
for
a
month
later
to
see
if
this
new
process
had
been
effective,
and
Busche
agreed
to
the
plan
of
action7.
1.
Describe
the
performance
situation
in
specific
detail.
2.
Seek
and
listen
to
the
team
member’s
point
of
view.
3.
Get
agreement
on
the
problem.
4.
Ty
to
get
the
employee’s
involvement
in
determining
a
solution.
5.
Agree
on
a
plan
of
action
to
improve
performance.
6.
Summarize
the
agreement
and
reinforce
the
changed
behavior.
7.
Plan
for
follow-‐up,
if
needed.
