Corporate Executive Coaching Services

 

What Is 1:1 Executive Coaching?

The International Coaching Federation defines corporate executive coaching as partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential. CoachDiversity Institute offers customized executive coaching for corporate leaders, managers and senior executives. Participants work one-on-one with a professional coach who helps them accomplish their professional career goals in addition to their organizational goals. Executive coaches help their clients focus on relevant areas, clarify their goals, and take the action steps necessary to achieve their desired objectives.

Why Executive Coaching is Important

Executive coaches understand how to get people to examine their inner lives, gain self-awareness and unlock their potential, so they can achieve personal and professional goals and objectives, including those related to workplace diversity. Individuals and their custom-selected, certified coach work as a team to help the executive increase self-awareness, expand their comfort zone, enhance performance, and further develop leadership skills.   

Individual coaching involves:

  • Identifying goals and observable outcomes as a result of coaching
  • A confidential and client-centered relationship
  • Following a client-driven agenda for each session
  • Accountability support from the coach
  • Supporting the reflection, meaning-making and growth of the client
  • Tracking and monitoring behavior change and results over time
  • 1:1 coaching typically occurs during 45-minute sessions scheduled over a period of three to six months. Communication is virtual via phone or video formats.

What is the Purpose of Executive Coaching?

In general, executives seek executive coaching and leadership development because they see organizational challenges in their working environments and want solutions. In many cases, these executives may feel that these obstacles are hindering their efforts to guide their organizations to greater levels of success. An executive coaching program that features one-on-one interaction can show leaders the way and provide them with the skills they need to solve myriad issues.

For example, a leader may want to seek executive coaching because he or she wants to shift leadership styles to one that is more collaborative and less controlling. Many of those who engage in this practice are looking to create a different culture within their companies, such as one that is based on accountability.

Others want a coach to assist them in developing stronger communications skills so they can become more effective coaches to their team members. In other cases, a new role, the launch of an important product or another organizational change is the catalyst that inspires leaders to find coaching. In any event, an executive coach can facilitate the change these companies need.
