Create Strategies And Action Plans For Goals

Curiosity ignites the spirit as a coach so you are always tuned in with the need to ask great questions by effective listening. This stems from knowing that you do not know and wanting to know because you know that something is worth knowing. If you thought you already knew something, you would not be curious about it. On the other hand, if you have a clear purpose of knowing, that makes your curiosity even more intense.

There is a common thread among famous inventors: their never-ending journeys of inquiry and exploration, and their quests to create new things. Thomas Edison was inﬁnitely curious about how to bring light into the world without having to light a ﬁre, and he invented the lightbulb after reportedly making over two thousand attempts.

Ensure the setting of action steps are part of the coaching conversation
Ensure actions are clear and specific
Ensure actions are measurable
Ensure actions are aligned with the strategy
Ensure the strategy is aligned with the goal
Ensure the coachee identifies what needs to be done
Ensure the coachee identifies when the action steps are executed
Ensure the coachee identifies the target completion date
Ensure the coachee identifies what support or resources is needed to get results
Ensure the coachee identifies the people needed to give support or be accountable to

Chunk down your goals with the right strategies and action steps and ensure that they are aligned to enable maximum achievement.

– Jack Canfield

Coaching leaders do their best to refrain from telling their coachees what to do. Instead, they ask great questions to draw out the answers. If people are unsure of what strategies and action steps to take, you can guide the conversation to get the coachee to talk to those who have accomplished similar goals to get helpful ideas.

While working on the strategies and action steps, tap on curiosity to ignite the spirit so that you remain open to creative and innovative ideas. At the same time, ignite their curiosity. Invite them to be innovative and explore various options before analyzing and identifying better solutions.

You can also ask coachees about the costs needed: What do they need to forgo to execute effectively? In the same vein, help them to identify barriers that could prevent them from achieving their goals so that strategies to overcome challenges can be made.

Effective strategies and action steps are essential to enable coachees to achieve their goals. When they get things done, it creates momentum and increases motivation to achieve even more because success breeds more success. When people meet their goals and make great progress, they get excited and begin to believe in themselves even more. Over time they become capable of achieving much more than they imagined possible.

Knowing where you really want to go, how you are going to get there and taking action to get there is the essence of the psychology of achievement.
