The success of any organisation is significantly impacted by the ability of senior individuals to work collaboratively with others, make effective decisions, provide direction and inspire others to deliver their highest potential. Executive coaching helps maintain this level of performance during challenging or transitional periods.
It also provides an opportunity for senior leaders to reflect on their own performance, raise self-awareness, play to their strengths and address their weaker areas in a safe and supportive, yet challenging environment.
Often, life at senior levels of an organisation can be isolating – there may be little opportunity to discuss issues with others and senior leaders often find life at the top lonely. Executive coaching creates a safe and confidential space for senior leaders to discuss, learn and develop and an executive coach can challenge and support directors to help themselves and their business to excel.
As an experienced senior leader you may be looking to address particular workplace challenges, raise your personal game or lead improvements to maximise team performance. Whether there are specific issues to tackle, changes to implement, a new role to embrace, challenging projects to deliver – or whether your focus is on personal development and improved self-awareness – a coaching programme can assist you in reaching your goals.
Our approach to executive coaching starts with an initial chemistry meeting, to explore your goals and ensure that we can work effectively together. All 1 to 1 programmes are then designed and tailored to address individual requirements.
Completed in about 15 minutes, the online questionnaire comprises adaptive testing to ensure precise insights into each individual. Based on over 40 years of research, the assessment is straightforward, easy to use and fast to complete. On completion of the questionnaire a personalised profile is produced for each individual.
Really deepens both your understanding of the DiSC model and your own self-awareness. It provides insights into other peoples’ behaviours and gives you strategies to improve interactions and performance in the workplace. In addition, 1 to 1 coaching can maximise its effectiveness for you.
Bringing together all your team’s profiles within in-house workshops helps you explore working relations with colleagues and more fully understand team dynamics. Understanding each others’ needs, behaviours and values helps build a stronger, more connected team.
Building on your Workplace Profile, a full range of additional resources are available to dig deeper into your management and leadership approaches, drivers, values, organisational insights and culture.
