Mentor, Coach, Lead to Peak Professional Performance

The practices of mentoring, coaching and leading are among the most powerful contributors to peak performance in our careers, and they have bidirectional importance. It is crucial we are well-mentored, we seek formative coaching and we are effectively led as we advance professionally. We are remiss if we do not turn around and contribute the same to those around us. This session addresses the compelling need to build bench strength by developing leaders within our organizations and profession, facilitating succession planning, and driving performance, engagement and outcomes. We will review current literature on the topics of mentorship, coaching and leadership. Then, we will guide participants through didactic and interactive learnings to nurture their effective engagement as mentors, coaches and leaders, while becoming well-mentored, coached and led by others.

Mentor, Coach, Lead to Peak Professional Performance

Laurie K. Baedke, FACHE

When it comes to leadership, no one is purely self-sufficient. Healthcare leaders do their best work when they are surrounded by wise people who support them, share power and influence, and give them honest feedback from a place of objectivity.

Mentor, Coach, Lead to Peak Professional Performance explains why it is important to build a network of advisors and pay it forward by extending advice and support to others. Author Laurie K. Baedke provides practical guidance on how to build relationships that foster both individual development and organizational success. Readers will learn the distinctions between mentoring, sponsoring, and coaching partnerships and will understand which circumstances are most suited for each type of collaboration. The book is filled with tips and tools on how to make the most of these powerful connections.

  • Why it is important to assemble a diverse team of advisors to inform your journey in life and leadership
