SCHEDULE A DISCOVERY CALL

 OUR WHY

 

Until not long ago, leadership equated to command and control, and a leader’s job typically consisted in directing employees to perform their duties well, delegating, solving problems, and monitoring and evaluating progress. Success was measured by company profits as well as meeting targets and deadlines, often at the expense of long work hours, lack of work-life harmony, and dissatisfaction. 

 

Businesses that are unable to attract and retain talent need to take a close look into their culture. Too many employees are feeling burned out, stagnant, and dissatisfied in their careers, and in search for more people-centered work environments.

THE LEADER-AS-COACH 

In today’s constantly changing, challenging, and unpredictable circumstances, leaders have a new role, which is to provide support and guidance rather than instructions, while team members learn to adapt to constant changes in ways that unleash fresh energy, innovation, flexibility, and commitment. Consequently, coaching is becoming essential to the core of an organization’s culture, and that’s why more and more organizations are training their leaders as coaches.

One difference between everyday managers and effective, respected leaders is the mindset, toolset, and skillset that a coaching foundation offers. Effective leaders-as-coaches ask questions instead of giving answers, involve team members in decision-making, and facilitate their personal and professional growth. To become effective leaders-as-coaches, managers must be open to self-awareness, vulnerability, and transparency. Employees are more enthusiastic about the work they do when they know their leaders genuinely care about their growth and are willing to support them in accomplishing their goals.

Learning foundational coaching skills doesn’t make you a certified coach; rather, it makes you a more mindful and effective individual both professionally and personally.

The Benefits

Just like in sports, leaders-as-coaches support the growth of each player to be more skilled and strong in order to ensure a win for the team.

 

“Organisations that develop their managers to be coaches experience consistently higher levels of employee productivity and engagement and enjoy improved economic performance. A defining quality of a Leader-as-Coach is their ability to develop a winning mood.”
