When using supplemental coaching as it relates to careers, it can be really simple. Some main options are hiring or finding a mentor internal to your company. Hire or find an external coach. For example, let's return to our character of Mark, who wants to go into marketing and data analytics. Another option is to find someone in that position who could become their peer-to-peer coach.

The other thing supplemental coaching accomplishes is that it doesn't take you any in-person time as the coach. Reading books, watching videos, and taking courses are all things people can do on their own will. Here's the really cool part: these also ascertain whether they are really willing to go above and beyond the call of duty to take their career from Point A to B.

Supplemental coaching contains things like watching videos, observing others, interviewing people in those positions, getting a peer-to-peer coaching relationship, or a mentor, somebody already in that position, or doing the ideal state that somebody wants to do.

Think about your direct coaching: the questions you need to ask, the learning project for accountability that bridges the conversations together, and then how to supplement that.

In our example, if Mark wants to go into data analytics, is there a book out there relevant to that? Is there a series of videos he could watch? Are there courses he could take?

When you invest in people, and then you put a book on their desk or you send them a video, what you're doing as a coach is sending them a message that you've got their back. That you're going to go to the next level and you'll help them get there.

Supplemental coaching supplements your direct coaching in an extremely powerful way.
