EXECUTIVE COACHING
Often people work in isolation and it gets lonely without a supportive sounding board, especially when you know there they things you want to change. This is where coaching and working with a coach helps.You cannot teach a man anything. You can only help him discover it within himself. Galileo
What is Executive Coaching?
Executive coaching focuses on senior executives to enable them to be the best leader that they can be. Times when executive coaching provides the most impact is when the person acknowledges that they want and need support. This can be during his or her transition into a new environment or role, guiding the executive through change, supporting the move to a new role.
The end result is you get an opportunity to share new ideas or solve problems with an outside party who understands you and your business. Action plans are put into place and you take action towards make long lasting changes.
For the organisation
When you are investing in executive coaching for your organisation, you will want to know that I understand about you and your objectives. By understanding where the organisation is going (or wants to go) we work together to implement simple and effective strategies backed by professional coaching and mentoring.
Before we commit I will find out about your motivations, business and plans and explore ways in which we can work together and you can find out about me.
The end result: You have people who have a clear idea of what they want and how they fit with your organisational objectives.
For the individual
Knowing what you want to achieve is essential to any coaching session. Ask yourself, what does success look like? What are your outcomes, where do you want to be this time next year and what other things are important to you? Imagine you have already had your first coaching session; what sorts of things will be different for you, how will you know it was time well spent?
- Authentic leadership through self-awareness and personal insight
- Greater effectiveness in building followership
- Increased ability to address political issues
- Greater influence and relationship building skills
- Maximum return on investment of their time and resources
- Development of their ‘leadership voice’
- Leadership through emotional intelligence and an appreciative leadership style
HOW DOES IT WORK?
ARE YOUR COACHES ACCREDITED?
Our coaches are all accredited with the Advanced Diploma in Executive Coaching or hold an ILM Level 7 Executive Coaching certificate and have significant experience working with senior executives and those preparing for executive leadership in all types of organisations, globally.WHAT ABOUT CONFIDENTIALITY?
Because the coach/client relationship is critical to success, it is imperative that it operates within the context of confidentiality and trust so that the client feels safe to be open. We therefore recommend an initial meeting to establish this relationship and ensure that there is ‘comfort’ for both parties that the relationship will work. At this meeting coach and client agree how they will work together, and what outcomes they wish to achieve. A coaching plan will then be agreed.HOW MANY SESSIONS SHOULD I HAVE?
We recommend at least six sessions for change to take place.
WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING
- “I discovered that when I change the way I look at things, what I look at changes – and that starts with looking inside myself. Thank you so much for helping me transform my perspective, and my performance.”
- “Your support, encouragement, insight and perspectives were valuable to me personally and assisted me in making some very significant career change plans. I was able to gain a perspective and understanding I would not have easily reached on my own”
