We are innovators in radiation therapy using the Gamma Knife Icon ® to treat patients with brain tumors and our “ Think Five ” approach to radiosurgery for prostate cancer , in which all therapy is given in five days — rather than the standard course of up to 45 treatments — with less side effects than other approaches .

You have an employee who has been with your organization for several years . He has been pretty competent , but recently Jim has been late in submitting three out of his last four projects . You don ’ t want to fire him because he does add value to the organization , but something has to be done . Consider the following steps for coaching Jim :
Ensure Jim acknowledges the issue . Get Jim to agree that there is some performance problem . Try saying ; “ Jim , are you aware that you have submitted three important projects well beyond the agreed upon deadline ?”
Emphasize the impact Jim ’ s performance is having on the organization . “ Jim , what impact do you think you missing these deadlines is having on Bob in marketing ?” Make it clear that there are consequences and that he is a key part of the team .
Ask Jim how he will address the issue . “ Jim , I appreciate you acknowledging the problem . What are the three most important projects on your plate ?” Let him respond and then ask , “ When exactly will you have them completed ?”
Agree on next steps . Establish exactly what the follow-up is going to be . Don ’ t wait for Jim to miss the next deadline . Confirm how and when he will communicate with you regarding the project .
Be responsive and show your appreciation . When Jim sends you the update , acknowledge his efforts . If Jim ’ s update communicates a problem , address it immediately . Continue to coach Jim to be an even more valuable member of the team .
