Leadership coaching
Coaching is more than a passing fad. The fact is it works. The return on investment has been well-documented because it is personal and holds individuals accountable within their own workplace. Personal accountability is the key reason coaching is so successful. The American Society for Training and Development has shown the impact of personal accountability on the likelihood of achieving a goal:
- Hear an idea 10%
- Consciously decide to adopt an idea 25%
- Decide when you will do it 40%
- Plan how you will do it 50%
- Commit to someone else that you'll do it 65%
- Have a specific accountability appointment with the person to whom you committed 95%
Great leaders create inspired, motivated and creative employees who are innovative and effective. These high performing individuals are able to make better decisions, incorporate disparate viewpoints, deal with complex problems and manage risk more effectively.
Teams led by skilled leaders are empowered, engaged and enthusiastic about their work, especially when it is challenging; they thrive on uncertainty, pressure and deadlines. Why? Because a great leader instills personal confidence in their skills, and abilities and inspires each person to achieve beyond what they individually thought possible.
The benefits of great leadership are felt at all levels of an organization. Coaching is developmental for the individual and a strategic initiative for the organization. A coach is totally committed to bringing out the best in each client, inspiring them to transformation and the development of an authentic leadership style.
Great leaders attract and retain high-performing people. Retention of talent will continue to be the differentiator for business in the 21st century — your people are your competitive edge. Companies that emphasize technical ability over leadership excellence underperform and never reach their potential. Great leadership is the best investment any organization can make in their employees.
