Companies use Leadership Coaching as a cost-effective way to invest in their people.
It is used in executive development strategies, as a component of development training for managers, and for individual employees who, with a little support, could rise above the bar to prove a great return on the company’s investment.
Coaching looks different at each level of leadership. Coaching for executive leaders is often focused on more advanced leadership skill development, like emotional intelligence. Coaching for middle managers is often focused on the challenges of managing up, down and across the organization. Coaching for front-line managers is often focused on developing the critical skills of managing the work and personalities of others.
While skills and concepts look different at each level, “coachees” can all expect to:
-
