Executive Coaching is a form of development in which a person called a coach supports a client (a coachee) to achieve specific professional goals.
Executive Coaching focusses on the potential in people and nurtures individual talents. It aims, through various questions, to help the individual realise that potential and achieve success.
Coaching is a three way collaboration between the coach, the coachee and the coachee’s manager or organisation to achieve agreed goals.
Coaching sessions normally run from between 30 minutes to one and a half hours. They can be conducted face to face in a quiet environment or virtually.
“Coaches model a strengths-based approach to successfully trigger the counterpart’s interest, self-worth, energy, motivation and action. Counterparts learn to harness their strengths to manage whatever is interfering with their full potential and productivity.” – the Institute of Executive Coaching and Leadership.
Executive Coaching draws on the latest study in neuroscience and psychology. It encourages people to focus on all aspects of their environment including their thoughts, behaviours, their relationship with others and the structures they work within.
Successful coaching often challenges the participant to stretch themselves and step outside their comfort zone to realise their potential and achieve their goals.
