1 Observation Tool: Supporting Behaviors Job Aid Managers Guide

2 Need for observation Based on feedback around the importance of observing associate performance and providing feedback of how to implement behaviors that enhance both the Member experience and increase sales the Observation Tool was developed. This tool is designed to allow leaders to evaluate the associates level of proficiency in demonstrating the MFE process and develop key selling behaviors. It will be your primary way of documenting the observation and allowing both mangers and associates to have a consistent tracking of progress around key selling behaviors. You can see there is an observation tool for each phase of MFE and is linked to the key behaviors and rubrics that will allow the associate to deliver a WOW Member Experience. When coaching associates, it is important to follow a model so the message is consistent throughout the team. MFE is the foundation of our associate behaviors, and also the foundation of how we conduct an observations. While conducting feedback you should avoid coaching on every phase at the same time, as this can become overwhelming for the associate and reduce the effectiveness of your coaching. You should instead focus on improving the phase that you feel is most in need of improvement. Observations must be interactive, they are a process, they must be timely and focus on developing selling behaviors as wells as the associates responsibility to develop action plans to improve. By using this new Observation Tool regularly both managers and associates can establish a partnership to improve overall performance and also have a great reference point to conduct the monthly coaching sessions.
