2. "I've been a manager longer than our coach has been a nurse."

5. "Coaching has helped my nurses improve their practice."

Answer 1

2,4
Rationale 1: This question would allow the coach to list the benefits of coaching. It does not indicate that the nurse doesn't value the experience.
Rationale 2: A statement like this may well indicate that the manager does not think that the coach has any information that will be of benefit.
Rationale 3: A manager who is burned out with current methods may be very willing to learn new methods.
Rationale 4: When people go into a program thinking it is a waste of time, they often do not see its value.
Rationale 5: If the manager has seen improvement in practice as a result of coaching, the manager is more likely to have a positive attitude toward the program.
