Abstract
How do you deal with the talented manager whose perfectionism paralyzes his direct reports? Or the high-performing expert who disdains teamwork under any circumstances? What about the sensitive manager who avoids confrontation of any kind? Do you ignore the behaviors? Get rid of the managers? James Waldroop and Timothy Butler suggest that you coach them. They have found that coaching--helping change the behaviors that threaten to derail a valued manager--is often the best way to help that manager succeed. Executives increasingly recognize that it is people management skills that are the key both to their personal success and to the success of their business. And being an effective coach is a crucial part of successful people management.
