Business Coaching - Results

Every coaching plan is customized to accommodate a company's unique team of individuals, business model and goals. Business coaching or executive development objectives can vary tremendously between clients, even within the same discipline. This makes specific comparisons of results difficult.

Despite this the expected coaching benefits by type of objective are known. A coaching engagement should clearly identify quantitative and qualitative goals with respect to anticipated  improvements. The realization of these goals is dependent on both coach and client together.

Select an area below to look at type of benefits that can result from proper focus on that area. Please note that in many cases one area of business focus has dependencies in another business focus area. Also be aware that almost any business focus area could have a dependency in an executive focus area. Failure to see these dependencies may prevent desired improvement gains.

In which of these areas to desire better results?

 

Your staff members may have strong competencies in their roles yet still fail to meet business objectives. This can be due to a deficiency of interpersonal skills or executive abilities. Environmental factors such a as shift in circumstances, pre and post merger, cultural or generational transition, low morale, or a pending negative change can also be to blame. These factors can undermine a team member’s ability to perform their best and grow as needed to face next level challenges.

No guarantee of a specific result can be made by any coaching firm. The same limitation prevails for a top NFL or FIFA coach as they cannot guarantee where the player will throw or kick the ball. That said, coaching consistently provides results when both sides, the client and coach, deliver as promised. In addition to an outstanding coaching team we have a very effective coaching process and an unparalleled quality assurance program to further ensure success.

 

General conditions that help ensure coaching success:

  • Openness = willingness to let go of long held assumptions.

  • Growth = readiness to learn and implement new approaches.

  • Teamwork = coach and client count on each other.

  • Communication = additional, redundant questions to ensure clarity.

  • Expectation = expecting more from yourself than usual.

  • Focus = consistent time and attention and effort in applying changes.

  • Commitment = determined to see coaching process through
