Coaching Best Practices

Five Principles for Effective Coaching Conversations

  1. SBI feedback model — Describe the Situation, the Behavior you observed, and its Impact. Avoid labels (“you always…”) — describe the specific instance.
  2. Ask more than you tell — Start with “What did you notice on that call?” before offering your interpretation. Agents who self-diagnose retain more.
  3. Recognition before correction — Open with a genuine strength observation. Agents in a defensive posture can’t hear coaching.
  4. Psychological safety first — Frame mistakes as data, not character. “That call had a tricky wrinkle — let’s pull it apart” lands better than “you made an error here.”
  5. Close with a specific commitment — End every coaching conversation with one thing the agent will try on their next call, and a follow-up check-in within 48 hours.
