‣ Future Planning:
The purpose of future planning is to brainstorm the oncoming 12 months. The „ Coaching Wheel ‟ tool is provided for this purpose and to help identify where the social start up is right now, and where the participants want it to be in 12 months ‟ time.
The Coaching Wheel should be completed collectively by all participants as the focus is on the social start up rather than the individual participants.
Ask participants to consider each segment of the coaching wheel as a scale of 1 – 10 where 10 is „ optimum performance ‟ and 1 is „ disappointing performance ‟. To give you an example, the scale has been inserted into the Business Planning Segment. Therefore as a group, the participants should ask themselves; „ where are we with business planning ‟? If they are satisfied that they are managing their plans well and keeping up with them, then they should shade the Business Planning segment to 8.
Repeat the „ where are we at ‟ question for each of the segments, and continue shading each segment according to performance. Once completed, the Coaching Wheel will show the currentperformance level for each segment and how each segment compares with the other. Through this visualisation, participants will identify which areas are working best and which ones require attention, change and action so that they can reach their aims in 12 months ‟ time.
