2 Days

Purpose: An orientation to the theory and concepts of executive coaching.
Emphasizes the importance of connecting business and people issues in
leadership coaching.

Topics:

  1. Definition of executive coaching as both organizational intervention and leadership development, e.g., working with leaders to align teams and streamline decision making to achieve business results.

  2. Capacities and skill requirements of executive coaches.

  3. Distinctions among several coaching methods - behind-the-scenes, "live action", one-on-one, and group coaching.

Systems-based coaching models, e.g., seeing the patterns leaders co-create with their organizations that promote or impede business results; resisting overfunctioning for leaders; holding a neutral stance while bringing your own convictions and talents to bear; assessing and mapping alignment issues; and attending to the system co-created by you and your client.
