Coach performance before problems grow
How can a new manager build useful staff development plans?
The team-management unit includes coaching, mentoring, feedback and conflict resolution. A practical plan links a skill gap to support and a later review.
What could change your decision?
- Separate skill development from disciplinary decisions.
- Record agreed support.
- Use evidence rather than assumptions about a person.
What should you compare?
Use the same fields for each option. Record the source and any unanswered question alongside your notes.

What still needs checking?
Employment-specific action may need HR or legal advice.
What is your next step?
Choose a low-risk skill gap and agree a short coaching plan with the staff member.
