Square Wheels®-Coaching Improved Performance Toolkit
This package, designed as a performance support to managers or trainers, uses the "projective nature" of
our Square Wheels® images to generate arms-length perspective on performance.
This package, designed as a performance support to managers or trainers, uses the "projective nature" of our images to generate arms-length perspective on performance. The toolkit includes a variety of tools for assisting individuals and groups in any improvement process. It will help you better plan a discussion and give you a solid framework for coaching and gaining the other person's active participation and involvement.
The Square Wheels® of Coaching Improved Performance Toolkit anchors to the ability of the Square
Wheels® cartoons to function as a projection tool, much like an inkblot or Rorschach Test in that
people project their beliefs onto the images. Through this mechanism, one can easily elicit client ideas,
on an individual and group basis, and then generate powerful discussions focused less on the emotional
aspects of coaching and more on the desired future state that can result.
This focus on the desired future state is a powerful tool that produces positive thinking and centers on dealing with the discomfort of making changes in light of future rewards.
