Coaching Conversations in 2025
Coaching Conversations with Tim Hagen, where we teach leaders and managers how to coach their employees. This is the ideal podcast for leaders, managers, and aspiring leaders to improve their coaching and leadership skills to create a more positive coaching culture within their teams.
In 2025, we're doing weekly podcasts on various coaching topics and strategies that will rotate throughout the month, as opposed to 2024 where the weekly episodes featured a monthly theme. Coaching Conversations will continue to have four episodes per month and we're going to sprinkle in masterclasses, which will be lengthier, workshop-style formats.
We also invite you to join the new FREE e-publication, the Workplace Coaching Times founded by Tim Hagen. This weekly newsletter contains expert insights on coaching strategies on specific topics like sales coaching, leading with empathy, and self-awareness techniques, and much more. We're a community of leaders, managers and coaches transforming workplace challenges into coaching victories—one conversation at a time. Subscribe here: https://coachingtimes.beehiiv.com/subscribe
Coaching Conversations in 2025
Conversations Affect The Workplace
First of all, realize one thing conversations are powerful! What we say and how we say it has a major impact whether fair or unfair.
Let's look at how conversations can negatively affect the workplace
- The water cooler - gossip central.
- Come into to my office - uh oh what did I do wrong?
- So-and-so told me… - ahhh not going to the source always create issues.
- The emotional interpretation - people react emotionally versus rationally asking themselves what ca I learn when getting feedback.
- The Maniac response - my boss ALWAYS attacks me or they never give me a chance.
Now let's look at how conversations can positively affect the workplace
- From water cooler to coffee break - lets just chat and learn about one another to deepen our connection.
- Come into my office - you are doing a (specific) great job! Now the positive stuff can spread.
- So-and-so told me so I want to learn from you ... - connections learning from one another can spread connections and knowledge.
- The written communication - send a card praising and that message will last a long time.
- The self-actualized question - "what will you do successfully ... fill in the blank" and watch them react positively as the questions helps frame out their response and reaction.
