With someone you mentor or coach, review several case studies and identify the cause, the effects and ways that relationships can be repaired.

With a person you are coaching, target in on a particular skill or aptitude they would like to hone (e.g., public speaking). Break it into smaller components. Demonstrate and then invite them to try. Offer positive and constructive feedback including a set of drills or strategies.

When requesting feedback, first ask participants to offer three positive attributes for one negative or constructive comment.

When meeting 1-1 with direct reports, discuss their strengths and talents and how they can be optimized.
