Drive for Continuous Results. Enhance Your Leadership Capabilities

Executive Coaching

 

Executive Coaching focuses on Leaders currently in positions that could benefit from a trusted advisor and Coach to take them to a new level of performance. Executives often seek a coach when they feel a change in behavior or enhanced skills can advance their career goals.

 

NOW facilitates and supports senior leaders discovering their excellence and strengths to move them to peak performance, while opening their eyes to potential De-railers impacting their success.

 

Examples for Coaching Executives

 

  • New Employees in Leadership Positions - NOW Consulting Coaching can coach employees in new roles for 90 days to ensure their success.
  • Moving a talented person in a role that they have never experienced? - NOW Consulting Coaching can coach them over a one year period to be a successful leader.
  • Executive Presence or Emotional Intelligence - Executives in new roles often lack the political savvy to maneuver through an organization and demonstrate the influence to be successful.

The Value of Coaching

 

"Coaching is a targeted development activity established to help leaders and their teams achieve inspired results, optimize performance focused on organizational goals, and uncover the excellence in every individual. Working with a Coach, leaders can drive for continuous results, sustaining those results, and achieve their professional goals".

 

Sarah Sinclair, CHI Coach, LFACHE, Certified in Hogan assessments, LEA 360/IDI; Member of ICF (International Coach Federation)

Continuity and Focus

 

Provides a framework for the Leader or Team to stay focused on the priorities and chart the pathway to success,  much like a personal trainer in matters of health and well-being.  Client establishes a contract with the Coach to deliver and gain new insights along the way to enhanced performance.

Personalization

 

Meets the Leader where they are right NOW and focuses on their burning issues.  The Coach enhances the Leaders ability to gain personal insight into real issues in their real world, and in real time.

 

Sustainable Transformation

 

Facilitates the Leaders shift to new ways of thinking and being-essentially making their lives at work and outside more meaningful and with healthier effective habits.  The Coach seeks to bring out the natural strength of the individual to be an ongoing source of energy in their performance.

Focused Personal Development

 

Enhances Leadership capabilities. At certain career junctures, a Leader may find themselves without all the necessary skills to meet the requirements of the job.  A Coach can help sort through what those might be based on organizational goals, assess the current state, identify the gap and facilitate a plan to close the gap.
