Week 4 Assignment
Developing Individuals and Teams
Module 2 Assignment Overview
In this module, you will complete a three-part Assignment that is submitted over the course of 3 weeks. This week, you will complete and submit Part 1. You will complete and submit Part 2 in Week 5, and you will complete and submit Part 3 in Week 6.
Important Note: Please be aware that, for Part 2 of the Assignment, due in Week 5, you will be required to have completed an online simulation experience that must be scheduled for a particular time. Be sure to read the instructions thoroughly to ensure you plan ahead and fulfill all requirements for the Assignment.
In this three-part Assignment, you will play the role of a new manager who is engaging in development activities for your team. As a new manager, you are being asked to provide evidence to your senior leader of the types of activities you are engaging in to further develop individuals on your team—and the team as a whole. In line with that request, you will complete three activities and create three documents that you will present to your manager. In Part 1 this week, you will develop and submit a coaching preparation and strategy document that you will use to conduct your required simulation to be completed ideally sometime later this week or early in Week 5. In Part 2, you will use the simulation platform to conduct a one-on-one coaching session with an employee, reflect on this experience as it relates to your individual development as a manager and as a coach, and submit a coaching plan (for individual performance management). Finally, in Part 3, you will research and develop a team charter for a team you know well.
By demonstrating skills in these areas, you will develop foundational competence in helping both individuals and teams achieve results and stay motivated and engaged.

Part 1: Coaching for Performance: Coaching Conversation Preparation and Strategy
For this part of the Assignment, you will act as a new manager who has become concerned about what appears to be declining motivation and engagement on the part of one of your employees. You have spoken to your senior leader about your concerns, and she has asked you to document your interactions with the employee so that she can support you in becoming a more seasoned coach for your team. Your task is to prepare for an appropriate and effective coaching conversation with this employee. You will conduct this conversation using an online simulation platform. This week, you will draft and submit a Coaching Conversation Preparation and Strategy document for your coaching session.
Important Note: If you have not already scheduled your required simulation experience, please do so as soon as possible by following the directions found in the Simulation Session Guide (PDF). Once you are a registered portal user, you will select a specific day and time to complete your simulation experience. Please note that you must first complete the simulation experience to answer the reflective questions in Part 2 of this Assignment, due by Day 7 of Week 5. Therefore, be sure to allow yourself enough time between the simulation experience and Assignment due date to complete your Week 5 Assignment.
To prepare for this Assignment:
Download the WMBA 6010 Simulation Preparation (PDF) document.
Download the Week 4 Assignment Template (Word document) to complete your Coaching Conversation Preparation and Strategy. Review the scenario for the simulation, as well as the points under each section that you will flesh out to develop the outline for your coaching conversation. The title for each section of the outline represents one of the challenges you will complete in the simulation.
By Day 7
Submit your completed Coaching Conversation Preparation and Strategy document as follows:
For each section of the Coaching Conversation Checklist, use the space beneath each item to take detailed notes of what you plan to say to the employee during your coaching conversation. You may choose either to compose a script (understanding that this may need to change in the moment depending on how the employee responds), or you may instead choose to include bullet points with key phrases for the ideas you want to cover and strategies for how you might help put the employee at ease, establish trust, or anticipate how he may respond to your feedback. Be sure to address all parts of each item.
