  3. College Graduate (The option I selected for Lingvai Excavating) • Majored in Construction Management • Had worked construction as summer job and college co-op • Had demonstrated leadership capabilities

  4. Taking the first steps: My plan was to have Rick 1. Act as my representative in the field 2. Support the field superintendents 3. Manage the field operations **In general – my plan was to have him move from amanagerial role to a leadership role*****These steps were intended to free up my time***

  5. Observations Generate Concerns • Tentative in decision making • Loss of passion he once demonstrated • I became concerned about long term commitment to the company

  6. Enter Leadership Coach! • No personal experience with leadership coaching • While at Stone Mountain met Rex Meade • Located a coach through State Trade Association

  7. Getting Started With a “Coach” • Initial meeting with myself and Steve Anderson • Steve and Rick meet 3. Rick takes analytical assessments recommended by Steve • Steve provides Rick “work assignments” 5. Follow up interviews

  8. My Personal Challenges • Was I ready to give up things I enjoyed doing? • Was I really ready to transition leadership? • Was I ready to make a “clear” statement of Rick’s role in the company? • Was I ready to allow someone else to define . . . • Culture • Direction • Philosophy

  9. Benefits: Coaching addressed my previous concerns • Rekindled his enthusiasm • Gave him confidence in dealing with difficult employees • Gave him confidence in challenging foremen • He became comfortable articulating thoughts on the direction in which he thought the company should move

  10. Looking to the FUTURE • Maintain contact with coach • Continue to instill the leadership culture in the organization • Remember . . . Leadership is always a work in progress!
