Executive Coaching
In this increasingly politicized, culturalized, and complex landscape, every leader deserves ongoing and sustained professional development to help them be more effective at their job. Executive coaching is a personalized approach designed to help leaders identify and maximize their assets using the situational leadership model developed by Ken Blanchard. In this framework, coaching honors the client as the expert in their life and work; and believes that every client is creative, resourceful, and whole. Building on this asset framework, the role of an executive coach is to identify a client's competency and commitment to follow through on the client's identified goals as a brainstormer of solutions, crafting strategic action with clear benchmarks of success, arriving at commitment statements to do the work, and serving as an accountability thought partner to assess not only the outcomes of the identified plan, but the coaching experience itself. The goal-how does an executive coach facilitate a conversation that will challenge and inspire the client to do more than they ever thought possible?
