    Remembering Dr. King This Year
    We Americans celebrate at least a dozen holidays each year. And while only Christmas seems to bring most business (and other activities) to a halt for at least part of a day, each holiday should represent at least a heartbeat's pause for those of us celebrating to remember who and what the celebration is all about.If it's worth celebrating, it should be worth knowing why we are celebrating. How can we better focus on celebrating those whose births, careers, or accomplishments, the day commemorates?This
    It really pains me when leaders talk about employees who don't perform to minimum standards. It seems that rather than take on the problem, leaders often find it easier not to confront the issue. A big part of leading people is helping them understand when they are doing well and not doing so well. It is especially important to recognize someone at once when they are doing a good job. When they need to improve, your job is to coach them to better performance.

    Some keys of coaching are: 1. Information: Know what is going on with your staff 2. Listen with empathy 3. Be aware of the work environment. This comes from talking to people 4. Instruct staff so they know exactly what is expected 5. Giving feedback

    Good coaches are good role models. They demonstrate good work habits. They also get to know people well enough to be able to develop them appropriately.

    Coaching is situational. You take different approaches depending on the employee and their overall competence and experience, as well as ability to do a specific task.

    Look at the grid.

    Grid I: Competent and task experienced There is no problem with employees in this box. Little follow up is needed here because the employee is dependable and good at his/her job. Though little follow up is needed, it is always wise to show appreciation for these gems! A verbal "attaboy" or "attagirl" is good and a written memo is even more memorable.

    Most people I question about receiving written letters or memos telling them they did a good job say they still have those notes years later. Remember that it only takes a few moments to put your appreciation in writing.

    I. Experienced at task and Competent overall No Problem: Keep in touch, but let employees do their job. Little follow up.

    Basics of Plastic Film Process
    The process of producing plastic film by extruding molten resin into continuous tube is extremely simple. The elements of the process include plastic pellets (resin) which feed through the hopper into an opening on the back of an extruder. Here, heat and friction from the screw and barrel inside of the extruder convert the pellets to a melt which are forced through an annular, or ring-shaped, die to form a tube.The tube is inflated to increase its diameter and decrease the film gauge, and at the same time is dra

    Getting Away from the Concept of Master Franchising
    So often franchisors look for faster ways to expand their systems and extend their brand name. One of the common ways to do this for franchisors is to sell regional franchising rights or master franchising. This is where the franchiser allows for sub-franchisors to do the franchising in a specific region or with a certain sector using the franchisor’s brand name, products and services.We looked at this in our franchising company and came back under whelmed by the initial results after rolling out two major maste

    Grid II: Competent, but task inexperienced If the employee is having difficulties with the task after you've given instructions, you can avoid problems by coaching him/her with H.E.L.P.

    H= Hear problem. Listen to your employee's view about the task and state your own view. E= Encourage by asking open questions to learn more. Get details about the situation causing the problem. Discuss the task until there is mutual understanding of problem. L= Lead employee to come up with his/her own recommendations about what to do to solve the problem. P= Praise employee for his/her problem solving ideas. Follow up occasionally to offer resources and additional help, if needed.

    Grid III: Experienced, but incompetent You need to fix this problem! The employee has been trained and retrained, yet still is performing below expectations. Before giving up on them, D.E.A.L. with the problem.

    D= Describe the situation without getting personal or blaming. Be specific and objective about situation, not the person. E= Express your feelings. "When this happens, I am concerned (or frustrated) because we are not meeting customer expectations" (or wasting time and valuable resources.) Do not start sentences with "You always" or "You never." The employee will become defensive and argue with you. A= Ask for what you want employee to do. Be specific with deadlines and checkpoints. L= Leave it on a positive note. Be encouraging and expect good results. Be motivating rather than demanding.

    Follow up frequently. If employee still fails, it is time to stop coaching and start disciplining.

    Grid IV: Inexperienced and task incompetent Make this a training or retraining issue. Be specific about instructions and ask employee to repeat them to be sure he/she understands what is expected.

    With these coaching ideas, your job as a leader will become easier.
