Executive Coaching

Executive coaching for the current and future leaders of your business

Fine tuning of the skills needed to be a great leader

As people progress through their career it’s important that they continue to develop the skills and capabilities they need in order to operate at increasingly senior levels.

It’s about fine-tuning their natural style so as to be able to use it to maximum effect.

Traditional training courses really aren’t effective at achieving this as it’s very personal so this is where Executive Coaching comes in.

Executive Coaching helps businesses to realise the potential of their Senior Managers.

Executive Coaching FAQ

Is the executive coaching specific to the individual or off the shelf?

Our executive coaching programmes are designed entirely around the needs of the individual and the business.

Before we begin the programme there’s a need for the coach and executive to meet. During this initial discussion the executive will learn more about what coaching entails and what they will be expected to contribute. The meeting also provides both parties with an opportunity to assess whether it is felt that a good working relationship can be developed. It’s very important that the executive feels comfortable with the coach and that the coach feels that the executive is committed to the process.

What is the structure of the executive coaching sessions?

Sessions last between 1.5 and 2 hours and have a formal structure with objectives being set at the beginning of the session and reviewed at the end.

There will be work which the executive will need to undertake between sessions which is designed to help put the coaching outcomes into practice.

How many sessions are required?

Typically, executive coaching programmes consist of 4 to 6 face-to-face sessions with additional remote support offered between meetings.

The programmes usually see the first few sessions happen in quick succession before moving to a slightly more spaced out model towards the end of the programme.

How are executive coaches assigned?

When receiving executive coaching, it’s vital to work with someone who you trust and whose guidance you respect.

With this in mind, you’ll meet the proposed coach, preferably face-to-face (be that in person or via a video call) before you begin the programme. During this initial discussion you’ll learn more about what coaching entails and what you will be expected to contribute.

The meeting also provides both parties with an opportunity to assess whether it is felt that a good working relationship can be developed. It’s very important that the executive feels comfortable with the coach and that the coach feels that the executive is committed to the process.
