Executive Coaching
Executive Coaching is the art of developing insight, increasing strategic thinking capacity, and enhancing personal, thus organisational awareness. Executive coaching focuses on three key streams,
1. Skills Coaching
2. Performance Coaching
3. Development Coaching
An open, secure and challenging relationship with a neutral third party can act as an effective sounding board, and allow the executive to traverse difficult decisions and overcome self-defeating behaviours with the support of a coach.
At the core of Executive Coaching is creative problem solving, decision-making, and capitalisation on existing strengths.
Coaching is typically adopted by managers to build their capabilities to either grow in existing positions, transition to other senior positions or to be a more effective leaders. For this reason, RdL Management Consultants choose to perform personality profiling and three way meetings with key stakeholders before setting critical coaching goals. This is critical to the development of self-awareness, accountability, and career progression.
