As a leader, have you tried everything to help someone improve—and nothing worked?
That’s what Lydia was facing. She was committed. Strategic. She even partnered with HR to create a performance improvement plan for her employee.
But no matter what she tried, her team member wasn’t improving.
She felt stuck—and honestly, so did HR. 😥
Then, Lydia had a breakthrough.
She discovered that part of the problem wasn’t just the employee—it was how her own natural wiring influenced her communication.
The moment she made that connection, things began to change.
She adjusted her approach, had a candid coaching conversation, and together they found a new way forward.
The result?
He didn’t just keep his job. He was later promoted and eventually became an award-winning supervisor. 🎉
