Today’s
leaders face challenges
of increasing complexity,
ongoing change and
compressed time frames
within which to act.
This requires that
they become highly
agile learners who
are continuously expanding
their capabilities
to: |
|
 |
Problem-solve a
broad range of issues
under ambiguous conditions |
|
Listen to understand
multiple perspectives |
|
Size up people and
build the right teams |
|
Master change and
promote innovation |
|
Look to the future
and accomplish results
now |
|
Influence stakeholders
and manage their conflicting
agendas |
|
 |
|
Our
approach to coaching
starts with understanding
each leader’s
unique business challenges
and the critical criteria
to be successful.
We
then identify: |
|
|
Current strengths,
including his/her
developmental level
of meaning-making
|
|
Potential de-railers |
|
Strength and source
of his/her motivation
to develop |
|
Existing or needed
support systems and
partners |
|
A few challenging
but achievable goals
|
|
Measures of progress
and success |
|
|
|
The
coaching process is
customized to each
leader’s individual
needs and preferred
learning style and
utilizes a range of
approaches that include:
|
|
|
Asking targeted
questions to promote
reflection and discovery
|
|
Mentoring in missing
skills and levels
of conceptualizing
issues |
|
Ongoing feedback
from key people who
relate to and work
with him/her |
|
Action assignments
to learn and practice
new ways of behaving |
|
Pre-briefing and
debriefing critical
incidents and meetings
|
|
