    Are You Problem Solving for Your Team or Coaching & Guiding?

    Problem-solving for your team and coaching & guiding are two different approaches to leadership, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Problem-solving involves taking a more hands-on approach to addressing issues within the team. This may include identifying problems, analyzing data, and developing solutions to overcome obstacles. Problem-solving is useful when the team is facing a specific issue that requires immediate attention and resolution.

    Coaching & guiding, on the other hand, involves a more collaborative approach to leadership. It focuses on helping team members to identify their strengths and weaknesses and develop the skills they need to succeed. Coaching & guiding is useful when the team is facing long-term challenges, such as improving performance or building team cohesion. It helps to develop a culture of continuous learning and improvement within the team.

    Ultimately, the best approach to leadership will depend on the needs of the team and the situation at hand. Leaders who are skilled in both problem-solving and coaching & guiding will be better equipped to adapt to changing circumstances and lead their teams to success. By balancing the two approaches, leaders can help their teams to overcome challenges and achieve their goals, while also developing a culture of continuous improvement and learning.
