Supercharge Executive Coaching
“Your foremost job as a leader is to take charge of your own energy, and then orchestrate the energy of others”. – Peter Drucker
I recently spoke with the VP of Human Resources of a San Francisco Bay Area company regarding providing executive coaching for the company CEO. She asked some very insightful questions to determine fit. She specifically wanted to know how I worked with different personality styles, and my methods for initiating change in thinking and behavior.
The VP of HR and I spoke about my approach to coaching, and my belief that possessing a psychological understanding of human behavior based on neuroscience and business acumen are important competencies for coaching executives. We also spoke of the need for her organization to create a culture where innovation, creativity and learnin gagility flourishes.
The VP of HR is interested in collaborating with me in helping create a healthy corporate culture based on openness and respect. We further discussed how company executives can increase their self-knowledge and emotional intelligence tapping into their intrinsic self-motivation by working with a seasoned cognitive executive coach. Executives recognize their patterns, uplift people and achieve success through significance.
Executive Coaching
“No one has to change; everyone has to have the conversation.” —David Whyte, Poet
I believe coaching is a collaborative process of providing people with the resources and opportunities they need to self-manage, develop change resiliency and become more effective. Self-knowledge is the foundation for leaders inspiring committed followers.
My clients learn how to have coaching conversations at
work that inspire and engage others.
They are introspective and reflective creating a
corporate culture that ignites innovation and everyone's best work.
Collaboration is essential to helping people achieve their dreams, and align
with the company purpose and vision.
Emotional intelligence based executive coaching helps leaders integrate cognition and emotion to make optimal decisions at work. Emotions drive people. People drive performance. Objective self-knowledge gleaned through the process of self-discovery changes our mental models and aligns them more close to reality.
Utilizing online instrumented assessments - clients set clear goals, make optimal use of their strengths, and take action to create desired changes aligned with their personal values and mission. I utilize a wide variety of assessments in my work with senior executives and am adept at helping clients develop higher levels of emotional intelligence and achieve breakthrough business results.
Competencies
Many of the companies I work with have a competency model. If not, I can help them create one that is aligned with their corporate culture and strategic goals.
Executive coaching and leadership development focuses on improving requisite competencies. The competency-based approach is research-supported, and based on the primary goal of defining the critical behaviors needed for effective and superior individual and organizational performance. Leader’s influence is critical for team climate and overall productivity
Simply defined, a competency is a set of related behaviors that (1) impact job performance; (2) can be measured against established standards; and (3) can be improved through training and development. Competencies provide an internal GPS for leaders who model requisite workplace behaviors.
Are you working in a company where executive coaches provide leadership development for emotionally intelligent leaders? Does your organization provide executive coaching for leaders? Sustainable leaders tap into their emotional intelligence and social intelligence skills to create a more compelling future.
One of the most powerful questions you can ask yourself is “Which competencies do I consider emotional intelligence strengths?” Emotionally intelligent and socially intelligent organizations provide executive coaching as part of their leadership development programs.
“If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more, and become more you are a leader”. – John Quincy Adams
Working with a seasoned executive coach and leadership consultant trained in emotional intelligence and incorporating assessments such as the Bar-On EQ-I, CPI 260 and Denison Culture Survey can help leaders develop requisite emotional intelligence competencies. You can become a leader who models emotional intelligence and social intelligence, and who inspires people to become fully engaged with the vision, mission and strategy of your company.
