Coaching is a
new tool increasingly used by businesses to enhance the performance and the
critical skill sets of their executives. Over the last decade, workplace
coaching has gained such popularity that experts predict it soon will be used in
every corporate office and in most small businesses across the country.
WHAT IS IT?
Our coaches work with executives to develop
or modify such skills as:
 | leading teams |
 | enhancing
listening habits |
 | improving oral
and/or written communication |
 | resolving
conflict |
 | negotiating
difference |
 | dealing with
difficult employees |
 | coaching others |
 | making the most
of performance reviews |
HOW IS IT
DONE?
Coaching contacts may be face-to-face or
via telephone or both. In our experience, telephone coaching has proven to
have several advantages over face-to-face meetings:
 | allows greater
scheduling flexibility |
 | requires less
downtime for travel |
 | gives clients
complete freedom regarding where calls take place |
 | reduces costs
significantly |
COACHING AS A FRINGE
BENEFIT
 | Provide free
coaching to attract or retain valuable executives by adding to their skills. It is a useful way for
managers to discover their leadership strengths and weaknesses and then work
on improvement in a confidential relationship with their personal coach. |
 | Providing
opportunities for leaders to accelerate their learning and broaden their
experience-base via telephonic group coaching sessions for executives in
different physical locations. Group sessions are used to focus on common
problems and use peers to gain experience in developing new solutions. |
