I’ve included the instructions below. I have attached the template and the outline for this assignment so you can check it. Please check below and work on it accordingly. If you have any other ideas or
approaches, please let me know. As I mentioned, I need around 20 references.
This paper is for the Theories of Management course; I need to write a paper. This paper will summarize an area (“Improving Team Performance Through Coaching: A Focus on Alignment of Individual and Team Goals) and draw upon some readings to propose an appropriate theoretical framework. You will consider three theoretical approaches, outline their strengths and weaknesses, describe the theory and provide referenced examples of its use in management research, and justify the theory you choose for the final paper.
I have chosen the three theories below :
This topic revolves around how team coaching helps align individual aspirations, self-perceptions, and the team’s collective goals. Each theory offers a unique lens to explore this alignment:
1. Self-Discrepancy Theory: Analyze how individual team members’ perceived gaps between their actual performance and their ideal or team-expected performance affect motivation and engagement. Coaching can help bridge these gaps, improving both individual and team performance.
2. Conversational Theory: Focus on how effective coaching conversations facilitate open communication about personal and team goals, helping team members articulate challenges and align their contributions to the team’s objectives through dialogue.
3. Intentional Change Theory: Explore how coaching guides teams in setting shared goals and engaging in intentional, structured change efforts. The theory emphasizes creating a positive vision for the future and systematically working towards closing the gap between the current and desired states.
Then, I want to choose the best theory and justify the theory that I will use in my final paper(this paper is a draft)
I think the Best Theory for the Topic will be :
• Intentional Change Theory would likely be the most fitting for this topic, as it emphasizes goal alignment, structured developmental change, and long-term performance improvement at both the individual and team levels.
