| dc.description.abstract | This research explores how managerial coaching and self-awareness influence work performance within the public sector. Poor performance is one of the chronic challenges faced by the Public Service Department thus the need to explore coaching interventions that address this predicament. This study examined the extent of influence managerial coaching and self-awareness have on work performance. A questionnaire-based approach was used to assess the level of knowledge of respondents who are already managers facilitating coaching to employees reporting directly to them. Findings indicated that managerial coaching and self-awareness had a positive but insignificant influence on work performance in the public sector within the Mpumalanga Province. The public sector can increase employees’ effectiveness by encouraging managers to adopt coaching as part of their managerial practices to influence work performance. There is immense pressure and demands placed by the Performance Management Development System (PMDS) which was adopted by the public sector, and in order to meet these demands managers must adapt to change by taking responsibility for facilitating managerial coaching to develop their subordinates. This study advocates that managers (coaches) who facilitate direct coaching to their subordinates should acquire and develop coaching skills, adapt to a team approach, and learn to give people value. | |
