It helps provide structure and guidance in this situation, since your employee is unclear about what he needs to do. Coaching also supports and encourages him through follow-up actions that help him deal with a poor attitude and lack of concern.

a framework / frame of reference


Explanation:
I used these terms because the first part of the sentence is followed by "since your employee is unclear about what he needs to do." (This way, at least there is a "framework" (structure) or a "frame of reference" (structure) that the person can follow or adhere to.)
