What is it?

Great leaders understand that to bring out the best in people and achieve results they must lead by example. They know that coaching staff can improve morale and performance and develop teams.

Effective coaching can:

• Enhance individual, team and organisation performance.
• Create a culture of leadership through coaching.
• Develop accountability for business results.

Executive Coaching is a unique development plan designed for the individual executive or manager. Initially each participant undertakes a personal assessment, which includes feedback from company associates and possibly clients, often done in small group forum. An individual development plan is then created and specific coaching given to maximise your potential. Sessions begin with assessment and feedback and then subsequent coaching sessions will be planning, practicing and reviewing development.

What participants learn:

• When to manage, when to lead and when to coach.
• Awareness of their own coaching strengths and potential.
• Core coaching skills, including giving insightful and effective performance feedback.
• How to use the Coaching Process to achieve results.
• The ethics and responsibilities of using coaching in their leadership.

How it fits into your company:

By firstly raising an awareness of and then by strategically planning for, an executive’s professional, organisational, and self development can be maximised. Undertaking a personal assessment of strengths and development needs will allow any executive to be able to build a focused personal development plan. With this application of new ideas and learning to their own goals there will be concurrent organisational improvement.

Being supported by an appropriately match executive coach the participant is guided to resolve personal and professional issues and benefit from personal growth and greater self-awareness. This then encourages individuals to accept a greater personal responsibility for their actions and role with a higher level of leadership, new skills and increased confidence that can only serve to improve the organisational rewards.

Typical areas for development include:

• Contextual leadership – developing relationships, commitment, trust and vision.
• Leading for performance improvement and organisation change.
• Emotional Intelligence and communication.
• Organisational presence and presentation.
• Innovation and risk management.
