Episode 39 — Coaching and Mentoring: Building Capability Deliberately
This episode introduces the distinction between coaching, mentoring, and training, explaining when each is most appropriate in an agile context. Coaching is presented as facilitation that draws out potential, mentoring as experience-sharing, and training as skill transfer. Candidates learn how leaders decide which approach to apply based on team maturity and goals.
The discussion connects these approaches to PMI exam scenarios, where the best leadership choice often involves empowering rather than instructing. By understanding how coaching and mentoring build capability deliberately, learners can recognize how leadership accelerates team growth. Produced by BareMetalCyber.com.
