Executive Coaching/Leadership Development:
While leadership development and training programs build required skills across an organization in a group setting, leadership/executive coaching is a key "accelerator" to acquiring required skills and overall leadership effectiveness by offering a targeted learning and development experience at the individual level. There is no better way for leaders to acquire and enhance the skills necessary to become a successful leader and contribute in progressively meaningful ways to the organization. As leaders move through the levels of leadership, they increasingly need access to an objective third party in the form of a leadership coach. In our experience, coaching is most beneficial when a leader:
Is advancing to a new position
Has been identified as a rising star
Has difficulty getting results from his/her team
Is displaying leadership qualities but is not meeting performance goals
Lacks self-awareness about his/her impact on others
At the forefront of all LCSR Consulting Coaching is a clear agreement on the desired outcomes. What does this leader need to build upon? Improve? Explore? Achieve? Equally important, we establish how to measure progress against those outcomes.
