Understand how you can assess your agents performance, identify skill gaps, and train
them to enhance their skills sets with Coaching.

An IT manager manages IT operations for a large organization that has 12 teams reporting
to the manager. Each of the manager's teams has anywhere from 20 through 50 agents. This
manager is also added as a manager of other teams where they need visibility.  
The manager wants a single location to:

* Monitor the skills that the teams use the most to solve issues
* Analyze metrics and monitor pending coaching assessments and training for the teams
* Add skills used for resolving issues or when Predictive Intelligence Workbench recommends them.
{#example-coaching-configurable-wfo-itsm__ul_qm1_n2c_nlb}  
The manager can manage all of these actions by doing the following:

1. Set conditions that trigger coaching opportunities.
2. Assess agents' skills and assign training.
3. Add skills to agent profile when they complete training or using recommendations from Predictive Intelligence.
