Ask: What support does the person or team need to take responsibility for improvement? Advice? More coaching? Help in removing barriers? Create clear accountability. Make sure the person(s) understands what he or she is responsible for doing to improve and knows what resources and support you will provide. Keep an eye on progress to identify support needs and encourage people to ask if they need more support.
