It’s often too late, or ineffective to begin coaching after the employee starts demonstrating poor performance, because it may have been the manager’s inability to communicate and model expectations that created the poor performance in the first place. The coaching relationship must begin early on, not only to assure good performance, but to establish trust and open communication which is crucial to effective leadership.
