Lead with Curiosity: Coaching as a Leadership Skill


There’s a growing body of research demonstrating that using a coaching approach in leading your team can improve work-related outcomes, including goal-attainment and self-efficacy, and enhance innovative work behaviors.

However, the label “coaching” has been applied to a wide range of managerial behaviors, and some are more effective than others in achieving these outcomes.

Angela Pashia’s approach combines her training as a professional coach with 12 years of experience working in academic libraries. Pashia focuses on developing a coaching mindset, as defined by the International Coaching Federation, and building the coaching skills that are most relevant for library leaders to shift how you interact with the people who report to you.
