What is Executive Coaching?

Executive Coaching is the difference that makes the difference.

Executive coaching consists of a series of one-to-one conversations that are designed to raise an executives's performance at work and help them to tap into their true potential. These focused conversations will help them raise self awareness and take responsibility for achieving meaningful outcomes.

The executive coaching process will often have the effect of enabling coachees to utilise their key strengths more and overcome weaknesses or limiting behaviours. It also helps to align the personal objectives of the individual with those of the business, which leads to increased motivation and improved business results.

Emotional intelligence is twice as important an ingredient of outstanding performance as cognitive ability and technical skill combined -according to a recent article in Harvard Business review.

Executive Coaching helps improve Emotional Intelligence, and thereby success!

What makes Inspiring Potential executive coaching so effective?

Our Coaching process

Our Inspiring Performance coaching programme typically consists of six face to face sessions with an Executive coach (2hr or 4hr sessions) as well as additional telephone and email contact. The stages of a typical programme are outlined below.

We assist the coachee to develop an objective assessment of themselves at a particular time, which includes a deeper understanding of their values, beliefs and very importantly those limiting beliefs that are preventing them from achieving the success they want. Optionally, we can also offer the unique Intercept reporting tool which readily identifies the emotional or behavioural roadblocks to an individual's success.

We work with Executives to establish their personal goals in the context of their company's strategic vision and goals

There is a follow up meeting to establish progress, learning and any further requirements.

Having developed an understanding of where the individual is at present and where they want to be in the future, we identify the challenges that need to be overcome to get there.

Having identified the coachee's developmental needs, we use various techniques to accelerate change. Such change could include acquiring new skills and behaviours or letting go of fears and limiting beliefs. It is through this profoundly transformational work that clients really begin to realise their potential.

Firstly we assume that people are aware at some level (often subconsciously) of the factors that might be holding them back from success or happiness. The executive coach's job is to bring this information into conscious awareness. It is often the case that clients may have 'avoided' addressing these issues for a very long time. By bringing them to awareness they are then in a position to get more control over their unwanted behaviours and take accountability.

Secondly, we help the executive take accountability for their development.Hekp them design and implement the action plan required to develop the knowledge or skills required.

Thirdly, the executive coaching process is 'forward looking'. Some discussion time is given to the past where appropriate, but the bias of the conversation is toward the present and the future i.e. what is happening now and what needs to happen next in order to get from A to B?
