THEY ROLL THEIR EYES

THEY ARE OFTEN LABELED AS ARROGANT OR APATHETIC

THERE IS UNPRODUCTIVE "WATERCOOLER"

OTHERS WONDER IF THE TEAM MIGHT BE BETTER OFF WITHOUT THE DRIFTER

ABSENTEEISM, TURNOVER, EXCUSITIS, STRESS, MISCOMMUNICATIONS, AND POOR MORALE BECOME COMMONPLACE

The cost of doing nothing with a high-maintenance/ drifting executive:

  • Unhappy employees = less productivity = less profitability.

  • A disgruntled or drifting employee can spoil the productivity of the whole team.

  • It costs on average 150% to 400% of their annual salary to replace mid-to-high-level employees.

  • It may take a new employee one to two years to reach the productivity of an existing person.

  • Highly engaged employees are 87% less likely to leave the organization.

THE PROVEN METHOD FOR THIS LIFELINE FOR LEADERS PROGRAM CONSISTS OF THESE FOUR STEPS:

Steps

1.

The high-maintenance/drifting executive and the coach have a confidential session, usually about 1½ hours.  More than one session may be required if the executive does not know the lifeline is a last hope. 

2.

The coach has a follow-up, confidential conversation with the manager to hear about any “miraculous” signs seen since the initial session, estimated to be seen 85% of the time.

3.

The coach gives a recommendation of either a six-month coaching program or “uncoachable.”

4.

Action Plan:  If coachable, the coaching program begins immediately.  Or if uncoachable, we can explore options available to the manager.
