Executive Coaching Program, the executive can expect to better demonstrate
the skills that have been internationally recognized as both the most
honored of the leadership characteristics and those that bring out the “very
best” from the people with whom they interact.
WHEN IS EXECUTIVE COACHING NEEDED?
Executives generally participate in one-on-one coaching
for one or any of the following needs:
- To prepare for a higher level within the organization which could
require conceptual capabilities, broader communication skills, and
a greater variety of leadership responsibilities demanding increased
flexibility.
- To focus on the executive’s identified personal and/or leadership
style that may be more effectively surfaced, understood, and modified
in private, personalized sessions conducted by a neutral professional
rather than in a group training situation.
- To help an executive explore needs and goals more deeply and to
assess his or her development plans by considering personal and lifestyle
factors, exploring possible value clashes, family dilemmas, stress
and burnout issues, and feelings of alienation.
- To help resolve an executive’s problems with a superior, such
as differing expectations of job description or client/customer protocols,
conflicts regarding criteria in both the selecting of new talent and
the firing of subordinates, or differences around interpretations of
appropriate social and/or political behaviors.
- To help key managers fine-tune their style into the emerging desirable
style of an organization’s “new vision or mission” or
an altogether new corporate culture (as in a merger or acquisition).
- Readings and written games and exercises to continually reinforce
new skills.
- Discovering individuals within the organization who may serve as
coaches or mentors.
- Keeping “behavior” reminders on desk, lectern, telephone,
or in the car to stimulate practice of new skills.
- Identifying internal/external resources for further development
of skills such as workshops, classes, certificate and/or degree programs.
- Scheduling meetings to resolve differences with “avoided” individuals.
