A big part of leadership is coaching. As a leader, you are likely going to coach others and be coached yourself. An important key to coaching is having good listening skills. This skill will not only help you through challenging conversations you are bound to have but will also contribute to your success as a leader in general.

I’m so excited to discuss all of this today with Michelle Luebke.

Michelle is the founder of Highlight HR Consulting. She has over 20 years of experience in all aspects of HR, including HR process design and implementation, coaching at all levels of management, global HR management, and compliance. Prior to the consulting business, Michelle worked in a variety of HR roles at John Deere, most recently as the HR Operations Lead for the U.S. Agriculture and Turf Division.  

Tune in to learn all about coaching and listening from a woman with an amazing breadth and depth of skills and knowledge.

We'll dive deeper into these concepts:

Why coaching is valuable to leaders. How coaches can help us strengthen our gaps. The best coaching rhythm. How to improve your listening skills. Mindsets to adopt to prepare for challenging conversations.
