Executive Coaching
Who Is This For?
Coaching is for executives who desire an on going partnership tailored to produce tangible and fulfilling results in their professional lives.
Why Do We Need It?
Our business lives move so rapidly, we often do not take the time to assess our current situation, the reasons for success in one area and repeated difficulty in another. Today, it is simply not enough to be good. A leader needs to be a great communicator, a great coach, a visionary and a powerful builder of relationships. Coaching is designed to help individuals align their professional excellence with their unique values and attributes; to identify leadership and communication styles; and to develop strategies and tools to effectively manage the ever changing corporate environment.
What Is The Content?
The ability to improve in a particular area, and importantly the motivation to change comes with a high degree of self-awareness. The coaching relationship is designed to foster this process and is unique to the individual. A client may want to work on anything from improving the impact of an important speech, to establishing more productive relationships with direct reports. Areas covered may include:
- Discovery
- Vision & Goals
- Design the Path
- Develop the Plan
- Self-management
- Communication & Leadership
- Personal Branding & USPs
How Does It Work?
The first meeting is designed as an evaluation session, wherein the client articulates his/her needs. This process may involve an assessment tool, individual taping of sessions and/or presentations, specific development assignments and of course, the confidential dialogue and relationship between client and coach.
Some executives prefer to establish a long term relationship, others have short term objectives. Timing is flexible and individual. However, we find that 60 minute sessions scheduled every two to three weeks are high impact, and provide effective structure and support.
