How does executive management coaching work?
Executive management coaching involves an agreed mix of interactions between the coach and the person being coached. These include:
- Face to face meetings
- Telephone conversations
- Email
- Skype
- Online messaging
An initial meeting is held with the coach and coaching participant to determine mutual suitability. If the organisation has a sponsor for this coaching then it is advisable that the sponsor is present at this meeting.
Following agreement to proceed the first coaching session will focus on scoping and determining specific goals for the coaching. A situational analysis is carried out to determine the current leadership situation and opportunities and issues affecting the coaching participant. An initial coaching agreement is written in the first month.
Analytical tools can be used to determine current levels of competency. If behavioural analytical tools such as Myers Briggs or DISC are required these can be scheduled into the coaching program as an extra.
Coaching can be at a variety of levels from Intensive to Maintenance levels. As a guide the following table illustrates three levels. A coaching program can mix Intensive, Standard and Maintenance levels according to the requirements of the participant and the organisation.
