How It Works
PROCESS CUSTOMIZATION & COACH SELECTION
In dialogue with the project’s sponsor, we create a customized coaching process that meets the organization’s needs. After understanding the needs, we build out a customized plan based on the executive’s unique style and organizational situations. The executive will get the opportunity to meet our coaches and select the one they would like to work with.
ASSESSMENT
We conduct different assessments based on each individual plan including things like 360 reviews, upward appraisals, and stakeholder interviews. As psychologists, we are uniquely positioned to analyze the data to discover insights that will help us build your roadmap.
DEBRIEF & GOAL SETTING
After a careful review of the data, a coach will partner with the executive to set specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-based (SMART) goals that align with the company’s priorities.
COACHING BEGINS
Our coaches expertly guide and encourage executives to apply each new learning as part of their day-to-day leadership. Coaching is generally delivered in person and/or video call to accommodate business travel.
MID-PROCESS PROGRESS REVIEW
Midway through the coaching process, we step back with the executive to reflect and assess progress on the agreed upon SMART goals.
FINAL PROGRESS REVIEW & CLOSURE
After the completion of coaching, the executive will receive feedback, reflect on achievements with their coach, and agree on next steps to consolidate their learning and maintain momentum.
OUTCOMES
Executive Coaching is where leaders gain the insights and tools to create cultures that foster innovation, resilience and accountability.
