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
Quiet Quitting: Some of it is Bullshit!
The process is flawed! We interview and people provide answers to get the job. They (the applicants) never once say
"Just so you know my crappy attitude shows up at 90 days and I start undermining people. At 6 months I lose my motivation and will want more money so please get prepared. Last, do not bother me with extra work because the Quite Quitting thing sounds pretty good and I will displaying that at about 9 months."
PLEASE TELL ME You Are Laughing?
Let's get back to the Fundamentals:
- If you are hired to do a job and you get paid ... DO THE JOB!
- Employees are NOT hired to demonstrate a negative attitude ... SO STOP ACTING THAT WAY!
- Let's get back to doing a good job, going above & beyond the call of duty, and helping teammates out when needed with a positive demeanor .. WOW THAT SOUNDS REFRESHING!
- When employees interview and say they are helpful and great teammates ... ACT LIKE IT!
- If you (employee) are feeling undervalued or not challenged schedule a time with your boss and ask for feedback and REALLY LISTEN! It does not mean you need to agree yet its better than never talking to them and sharing your hardships with teammates who cannot really help you!
Look this has probably come off cynical to some and I am okay with that. Leaders and organizations ARE NOT in charge of employee's careers. They provide opportunities but at the end of the day its up to the employee so why do we put so much on the leader?
