We should understand both our strengths and weaknesses, and spend at least as much time working on our strengths as on our weaknesses. Most agree with this idea in concept, and it applies to our current conversation in the following ways: 1. If we think of our team as people with both strengths and weaknesses, we can coach based on both. When we approach our poor performers from the perspective of strengths and weaknesses, it is likely that the coaching time we spend with them will be more effective and productive, so we might not need to spend as much time with them in the future. 2. If we think of our whole team as a pool of strengths and weaknesses, we now realize we should be spending at least half of our time working on strengths (or top performers). If you are frustrated with the overall results from your team members, or if you would like to increase the overall success and productivity of your team, think about where you focus your coaching efforts. If you are consistently spending most of your coaching time on poor performers, it is time for a reset. Find ways to focus more time on high performers, even if it comes at the expense of some of the time spent with those currently performing below expectations. Do that and you will see overall increases in results even if it seems counter-intuitive. Don't wait - take this idea and start implementing it now.
