How to use this Playbook Being a good coach doesn’t mean hours of training; you can get started pretty quickly. In fact, you can make a start as soon as you want. You can use these pages however you like. Maybe read them in one sitting, pick them up when you have some spare time over the coming weeks, or work through them over coffee. That said, maybe the easiest way is to spend a few weeks on each chapter – a little bit of reading, some thinking time, then trying stuff out on the job, and returning for some reflection. You can access this guidance 24/7, reading it online or downloading it as PDF to take offline. Rather than wait for formal training to be ready, use it now when you spot an opportunity to coach a better service outcome for our customers. Think of this as your ‘ playbook ’. Have it up your sleeve, so you can coach your team in the moment.

The Playbook provides a unique set of skills we think you as a leader will find helpful. To help you navigate being a successful leader at Qantas here are the expectations to guide you: • Leading self – your own development • Leading others – coaching them for success • Leading your business – delivering great customer service. We bring these ideas together to deliver on our service vision, ‘Making the Moment’.

“… a bit of reading, some thinking time, trying stuff out on the job, returning for some reflection.”

Chapter 1. Our ever-changing world

Let’s take a bit of a step back first.

In chapter one, we want to look at why we’re prioritising coaching, and why now.

No two of our customers are the same. When we asked what goes into their decision to fly with us, they are all unique...

Let’s focus on: Recognising our changing customer expectations

?

Why do we coach?

We’ve seen a lot of change here at Qantas. The needs of our customers are in a state of change, and our business and careers are growing with those needs. We want all those day-to-day moments to add up to a level of service that keeps pace with our customer’s expectations. It’s our job as leaders to plot a course for ourselves and for our teams through this change. It’s no small ask, we’d all agree. That’s why we believe investing in the coaching skills of our frontline leaders makes so much sense, building leadership with trust.

“Flying used to be a big adventure and it still can be.”

“But, there’s more to my choice of whether I fly – and who I fly with – now.”

An overviewof the Playbook chapters

Helen talks about the importance of a service mindset. A service mindset means helping and enabling our people to lead with less telling and more empowerment, saving lots of our own time in the process.

So, we recognise that our customers’ needs are changing. The stories that unfold in the next few pages are going to guide your development on how to coach. Here’s a little taste of what’s covered: We have some really handy techniques for asking the right coaching questions, so we’ll spend this chapter unpacking the basics of leadership coaching. In the following video Helen Gray (our Head of Service Experience) explains how we keep up with shifting customer preferences. Chapter 2. Coaching in the Moment

Chapter 3. Coaching our Qantas service vision In our third chapter we dig a little deeper on identify coaching opportunities and applying our newly learned tools to embed our service pillars.

What is it about our job that drives us?

?

“Coaching is a change in leadership style, building trust. It means less telling and more empowering.”

Chapter 6: Spring boarding our growth

None of us are perfect, so that’s why we continually invest in our own development. In an age of digitalisation and global competition, now more than ever we’re called upon for the truly challenging tasks, not least of which is to lead our people with a positive mindset. We thought an open and honest look at our own coaching skills would be helpful. We can’t get to where we’re going if we separate our jobs and our growth. Our development isn’t just about being in the classroom, it’s about looking for learning moments in the workplace and learning from our peers around us. We’re going to share some tips on the great leadership development provided by Qantas in our last chapter. Stay tuned.

Chapter 4. Coaching our Qantas service skill set In our fourth chapter we continue to build opportunities for you to practice your coaching skills by focusing on our Qantas service skill set and building your teams capability in their roles and on the job. Not all heroes wear capes! You might be surprised how many proud coaches you already know in the business who are busy leading their teams to great success thanks to their coaching skills.

High Performing Teams We’ve seen a lot change in the way we work. Our customers needs are also changing. Every customer who enters our stores or shops online should have an experience that builds brand loyalty and advocacy. Great customer experiences are possible when high performing teams are the norm.

Leadership is not about being in charge. Leadership is about taking care of those in your charge. Simon Sinek

We rely on our team members working together to help us thrive in the changing world of retail.

High performing teams strive to be the best, they set themselves stretch goals, solve problems sooner, create new and better ways to be successful and achieve great results. We rely on these teams to innovate and create, adapt and change faster than ever before. When team members don’t feel they belong in a team, they don’t ask for help, don’t voice their opinion, hold onto information for personal gain or worse of all don’t speak up to fix problems or find ways to innovate because they don’t feel valued. Getting to know our people and building trust are important prerequisites for a high performing team culture. What does it feel like to be part of a high performing team?

As a leader, you set the tone and expectations for how your team performs.

Great teamwork transforms the experience for

team members, the people we work with and our customers.

A new way to learn for aged care workers

Faster | Easier | Better

Hello and welcome…

Why should you care?

Because if it is faster, easier and better …

My name is Louise O’Neill. I’m the Chief Executive Officer at the Aged Care Workforce Industry Council.

For more than 30 years I’ve worked in health, disability and aged care. I’ve seen a lot of change. But never at the level we’re seeing right now. The 14 recommendations from A Matter of Care, including the Aged Care Voluntary Industry Code of Practice, are some of the most important changes we’ve ever undertaken. They will make our industry better and drive real and lasting change in the wellbeing, health and safety of our fellow Australians living in aged care. You’ve no doubt heard in the Royal Commission report that staff training is a critical and urgent priority. We need to make learning more accessible and available for our aged care workforce. The experience for you needs to be high quality and seamless. We need to use scientific approaches to help you remember and apply what you learn in your day-to-day work. I’m keen for you to pilot a new way to learn . Learning that you can do on your phone, when you feel like doing it. Learning that takes just a few minutes a day. Learning that’s easy to understand, easy to remember and that makes sense to you in your daily work life. You’ve probably heard of the saying, ‘take a walk in their shoes’. Most of us work in this industry because we have a passion for it. We recognise that a society can be judged by how it treats its most vulnerable members. We’ve walked in the shoes of older Australians… Well, this pilot is just one of many steps we’ll be taking in the coming months and years to walk in your shoes. To strive for more effective ways of learning, more staff, better working conditions and fairer wages. So now I’mcalling out to all of you. Please participate in this pilot, try out this newway of learning and then tell us what you think. It’s not just older Australians who will benefit from these reforms, it’s staff like you too.

• You’ll learn continuously and feel more confident

• You’ll have more opportunity to build skills and develop a career in aged care

• You’ll get a safer and better workplace with highly trained Carers

• Older Australians receiving your support and services

will have a safer and happier experience

Thank you.

Warm Regards,

Louise O’Neill

• You’ll remember more and know how to put it into practice at work • You’ll spend less time at a computer doing compliance training

It’s not just older Australians who will benefit from these reforms, it’s staff like you too .
