Executive Coaching Program For Managers and High Potential Employees

"Are you looking after your brightest and best people?"

How active is your organisation at looking after the 'rising stars' in your organisation? Often companies lose sight of this crucial aspect of management development and end up 'leaking' a lot of their talent to other organisations.

You may be aware of certain individuals in your firm who clearly have a lot of potential to lead the organisation in the future. However because they may lack experience or have some unmet development needs, they can struggle to achieve their true potential. Perhaps they go for a promotion and don't get it. They may then lose confidence and their progress curve becomes a plateau. This can be highly frustrating for the individual concerned as well as their peers who know that the person is capable of performing better if they had the benefit of a 'helping hand'.

Our Executive Coaching program for Managers and High Potential Employees is designed to provide the required help in these situations. Our coaching can focus on a range of common issues, such as the following:

What are the benefits?

Your employees will experience the following benefits from their one-to-one coaching experience:

Clarity about their direction in the organisation
Increased appreciation of their true strengths
An opportunity to step back and address their development needs
Have someone to act as a sounding board to
Develop new found confidence and self belief

What does this program consist of?

For Executives at this level we recommend a program of 12 hours of coaching. This can be delivered either as:

1 X 4hour session per month for 3 months
1 X 2hour sessions per month for 6 months
A combination of a) and b) over a 6 month period

One of the key benefits of our coaching is that it is intended to fit in flexibly around the schedules of busy people. The above suggestions are therefore not set in stone but we have found that they are suitable for many people that we deal with.

How do we get started?

Step 1

Typically we will set up a meeting with the HR professional or executive who is organising the coaching. We discuss the needs of the person being coached (coachee) and how these fit with the needs of the organisation.

Step 2

We assign a suitable coach to meet with the coachee to explain the how the coaching process works. At this stage it is important for the individual to demonstrate 'buy in' and that there is a good rapport between the coach and coachee.

Step 3

The final step is to have a 'round-table' meeting with the HR professional, the coach and the coachee. This meeting would establish the desired outcomes, timeframes and other relevant matters. This meeting is not always necessary but often it is useful to give peace of mind to the sponsor of the work. We are then in a position to set up the first session.

Confidentiality

It is important to point out that the actual 'content' of the sessions will remain confidential between the coach and coachee. This is an important 'rule of engagement' to ensure that the coachee can open up as much as possible in the sessions.
