Executive Coaching

Executive coaching is a transformative, collaborative process that empowers individuals in leadership roles to reach their full potential, both personally and professionally.

By partnering with an experienced coach, you embark on a journey of self-discovery, uncovering blind spots and enhancing your well-being. Coaches focus on wellbeing, personal growth, and strategic action to improve leadership skills, communication, stress management, and work-life balance.

The coaching journey involves building rapport, assessing needs, setting and achieving goals, and evaluating outcomes, all while fostering lasting positive change and a more fulfilling life.

Executive coaching is a collaborative, goal-oriented process that empowers individuals in leadership roles to reach their full potential.

Coaches facilitate self-discovery and address areas such as leadership skills, communication, stress management, and work-life balance. They use targeted questioning, active listening, and constructive feedback to help clients implement strategies for growth and lasting positive change.

Mentoring is a relationship-based approach where a more experienced professional (the mentor) shares their knowledge, skills, and insights with a less experienced individual (the mentee).

Mentors provide guidance, advice, and support to help mentees navigate their career path, develop new skills, and overcome challenges. The mentor-mentee relationship is typically less structured than executive coaching and focuses on the mentee's long-term growth and career progression.

Hiring an executive coach offers numerous benefits backed by scientific research. Executive coaching can lead to:

1. Improved performance: studies show that coaching can increase productivity by 25-70% (Olivero, Bane, & Kopelman, 1997).

2. Enhanced leadership skills: coaching helps develop essential leadership competencies, including emotional intelligence, decision-making, and communication (Smither et al., 2003).

3. Increased self-awareness: coaching fosters self-awareness, enabling leaders to recognise and address blind spots and enhance their overall effectiveness (Kilburg, 2004).

4. Better work-life balance: executive coaching can help leaders manage stress and improve work-life balance, contributing to greater well-being and job satisfaction (Grant, Curtayne, & Burton, 2009).

5. Improved well-being: a study conducted by The Institute of Coaching at McLean Hospital, an affiliate of Harvard Medical School, found that coaching interventions can lead to increased resilience, reduced stress, and enhanced overall well-being (Spence, Cavanagh, & Grant, 2006).

ICF-accredited executive coaches and coaches that trained in ICF (International Coaching Federation) recognised institutions adhere to the ICF Code of Ethics and Core Competencies, ensuring that they maintain high professional standards and deliver effective, ethical coaching services to their clients.

Other institutions ensure very similar level of professional standards.

Unfortunately anybody can self defined as a “coach” - beware of who does not have any qualification or just took a weekend course.
