The common theme across the research (and my own experience) is that most leadership training fails to deliver because it is disconnected from the daily reality of team leaders and their teams—which is often akin to changing the tires on a moving car while navigating to a new location. Many training programs present good ideas, but few connect the dots between ideas and actions with the level of mindfulness, discipline, and perseverance required to make a measurable impact on results. Coaching, on the other hand, is typically less focused on big ideas and more focused on building skills, competencies, and confidence immersed within the messy day-to-day work of teams. Moreover, the best coaching is metrics driven, measuring the progress and outcomes.
