"The best leaders not only manage, they develop their employees. They understand that their greatest contribution to talent development can come from effectively coaching their direct reports. Coaching as a leader means engaging direct reports in a way that challenges their thinking and enables them to reflect and become more self-aware. Leaders who coach their employees encourage them to stop and learn from their successes and failures and to question assumptions and reevaluate their perceived limits," Payne said.
