Partner with an Executive Coach?
Who invests in executive coaching service and WHY?
The amount of time an individual invests in shaping their career is fascinating. From
the time you hunker down in high school and dream about your future, to choosing an
institution, educational or training path to help teach, guide and provide the tools
for the skills you will need in your desired field. The time, effort and investment you
make in the search for a formidable company or start up to support your mission.
For most this is a decade plus of development.
And it is then that you are excelling. Earning positive feedback. A pay raise?! Yea! Maybe even
taps on the shoulder for taking on exciting new projects. You are asked to lead more people
or are being told you have the gumption to do so. This is where the world gets real.
Everything feels as it’s fast, competitive, evolving. Feedback is given but you crave more focus
on ways you can build your brand, confidence and future within all that you can control. Life
is evolving at the same time and you crave the balance and fulfillment in life and dare I say
HAPPINESS at work.
Introduce an executive coaching service that employs the tools and commitment to
play a significant part in your self-discovery and help develop your leadership skills. No
longer a luxury. No longer for just C-Suite executives. Steady consistent growth and the trend is explosive going into 2022. Leadership development coaching has far and
away surpassed simple problem solving. It is about transformation.
I spent 31 years in what I called the “people” business even though the product was
not a “human”. After over 17 years in an executive role, I recognized those who
plodded along versus those who hit goals, advanced on their time-line, and earned
promotions. They were prepared by their effort to embrace and use training, sought
out mentorship and engaged in being coachable. Their “coach-ability” was their
“superpower” when combined with their true desire to achieve.
5 TOP reasons to commit to a relationship with an executive coach.
1. Focus: Can you put a value on the outcomes you earn when the focus partnering with a coach that will help you mine for the solutions, the decisions, and the actions that when committed to get results?
2. Confidential: What does an aspiring leader need? Candid open conversations to vet out the imposter syndrome, doubt, limiting beliefs. Shake the behavioral landmines you stumble upon. To have the freedom to explore and leave what does not serve your goals behind to a brighter future.
3. Development: The goal is to change behaviors, impact your team and create
habits that serve your success. You cannot perform if you do not develop. That is
called luck. Luck is not a plan BUT luck does favor the PREPARED. Prepare to make
the adaptations stick. You will achieve more when coached.
4. Objectivity: The powerful impact of involving a fresh viewpoint not clouded in
drama, false pretense, ulterior motives or “buried in the past”, communication can make all the difference. The curiosity of a coach will uncover the ways you can have a fresh outlook on an old or reoccurring challenge.
5. Accountability: Not in the way most people understand accountability. The “get done or else” stuff. Accountable for your behavior change and you doing “the work”. A strategy and mindset that leads to commitment to new habits and behaviors that serve your leadership brand, and move you forward to create leadership acumen that is amazing.
Whether you are leading a team now or are aspiring to earn that right in the future
—seeking out the impact of an Executive Leadership Coach is an investment whose
return lasts a lifetime.
