Here are the key positives we have observed in many cases when client take full advantage of executive coaching opportunity.
1. Learn new ways to respond. The skills that get you where you are now will not necessary get you to where you want to be. The COVID-19 posed new challenges. it’s an imminent restructuring of the global economic order. What will it take to navigate this crisis? The traditional metrics and assumptions have been rendered irrelevant. Coach will help you with new highest-priority goals and more useful tools in the leadership toolkit.
2. Leverage your strength. Having a supportive coach can help you see and leverage your strengths that you may be underestimating. An effective coach will help you see the uniqueness and value of ones capabilities, and to learn how to use it more effectively for the benefit of your team and your organization.
3. Achieve what you want. A good coach can help you get clearer about your goals and about what you're capable of doing in order to achieve them. Your coach will be a powerfully useful support system on your journey: someone who is experienced and knows you very well and wants the best for you — but is a neutral third party.
If you're not willing to go through the process of acknowledging that you need to grow, and actually doing what it takes to grow, you won't benefit from having a coach.
No matter how old you are or where you are in your career, if you want to get the most from having a coach, you have to be willing to be a learner.
