It is now well established that step changes in performance can be achieved through a well conceived and well delivered coaching and mentoring programme.
In our experience, these programmes are particularly well suited to upwardly mobile individuals who having achieved success within their function, are now being asked to take on wider leadership roles and are facing very different sets of challenges. They have also proved to be highly effective for people who may have been Chief Executives for some time, but are finding that they are running into obstacles in the way of real leadership effectiveness.
We usually start with an in-depth assessment that is designed to benchmark their knowledge/experience; assess their personal competencies; identify their motivating factors; agree their development needs and build an action plan. This then leads on to a tailor made, highly practical coaching and mentoring programme of monthly sessions that is designed to be stimulating and provocative in nature; is rooted in their real life day-to-day experiences; and is highly flexible as to intensity and duration.
Amongst our consultants’ past coaching and mentoring clients are senior executives who are quick to say that their subsequent career success has in large part been based on their development programme.
