Faced with an increasingly challenging agenda, organisations are rarely able to invest in executive development that removes CEOs, directors and senior managers from their day-to-day responsibilities.
Executive coaching enables the development of executives in the context of their current role. Through providing structured time and space with an objective third party, coaching enables further development of skills and challenges executives to consider new ways of thinking and behaving, in order to maximise their performance.
The coaching agenda is driven by each individual executive and may include such topics as:
- Evaluating personal performance and maximising impact
- Leadership and communication
- Creating effective business strategy
- Managing stakeholders
- Developing new ways of thinking about problems, challenges and solutions
- Managing performance
- Tactical problem solving
The Chartered Institute for Personnel and Development (CIPD) has recently reported the prevalence of executive coaching and its effectiveness in addressing some of the perennial and common-to-all challenges:
- To improve poor performance
- To build on good performance
- To build employee engagement
- To aid leadership development
- Part of talent and succession planning
- Effective management of change
- Delivering skills and capability improvement, enabling more effective delivery of objectives
