Leaders can set goals and aspire to reach them, but until there is a clear understanding of the drivers or blocks that prevent success, sustainable growth is not achievable. At EI Executive we thrive on encouraging and assisting individuals to understand their needs, develop their skills and achieve their full potential.
There are a myriad of reasons for engaging a coach. These can include: support with resilience and wellbeing; setting and achieving identified goals; increasing levels of engagement and retention within your team; developing leadership capability; addressing any derailing behaviour; considering next steps in your career, and more.
Common coaching themes:
While the emphasis of coaching programs vary based on individual needs, following are three common themes often addressed in coaching programs, along with questions for you to reflect on in these areas (NB important to keep in mind these areas are often interlinked):
Enhance Performance:
Do you want to understand how to be a more effective leader? Or need to enhance your presentation and networking skills? Have you wondered how to improve your executive presence? Are you aware of specific and practical skills you need to develop, such as effective delegation, time management, increased confidence?
Create a career plan:
What are your career aspirations and how can you get there? What are your current strengths and skills and what development gaps do you need to address to move more effectively towards your ideal role? Do you understand what motivates you? Can you articulate your personal brand and key strengths and skills? Understanding and articulating these elements is the first step in developing a clear plan to drive you towards your ideal role.
Greater understanding of self and others:
How do others perceive you and is this helping or hurting your ability to influence key stakeholders, drive results and have positive working relationships? What is the impact of your management and communication style? How can you increase your resilience in the volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous professional landscape we operate in? Are you able to work effectively in diverse environments and with people that have different working styles, values, beliefs to you?
