Executive Coaching

An Executive Coaching relationship is a dedicated safe space where motivated professionals enhance high performance, grow into new roles, and illuminate career-limiting blind spots. As a neutral third party, a coach supports executive success by drawing on multiple domains, including psychological insights, business acumen, organizational knowledge, interpersonal expertise, and proven tools and frameworks. By advancing executives through coaching, firms support higher organizational performance, demonstrate commitment to team members, and improve culture and relationships.

- HOW IT WORKS

Executive Coaching Process

Designed for senior and mid-level leaders, our Executive Coaching program incorporates a robust 360 assessment process, goal setting, and ongoing coaching, with engagement across all stakeholders.

    • Discuss initial goals and engagement objectives

    • Self-assessment and 360-degree feedback from stakeholders is collected via confidential 1-1 interviews with Coach or psychometric assessments.

    • Coach debriefs 360 feedback with Coachee.

    • Based on assessment findings, 3-5 coaching focus areas are clarified and incorporated into an Individual Development Plan (IDP).

    • Coach and Coachee meet 1-1 at a regular cadence, usually 2x/month.

    • Coach provides custom tools and resources.

    • Midpoint reflection completed by Coachee.

    • Midpoint check-in with manager and/or sponsor.

    • If desired, Coach sends brief survey to original 360 participants for updated feedback.

    • Coachee completes final self-assessment.

    • Coach and manager have their final meeting.

    • Accomplishments are celebrated.

- OUR ASSESSMENT

360 Degree Feedback

Our 360 Feedback process, included as part of most Executive Coaching engagements, is designed to provide comprehensive feedback either through an in-depth assessment tool (The Leadership Circle), a diverse set of stakeholder interviews, or a blended approach.

  • The Leadership Circle Profile measures twelve Leadership Competencies, well researched and shown to be the most critical behaviors and skill sets for leaders. Participants will receive feedback on how they assess themselves on these competencies and scores will be compared with how other managers evaluate themselves on these same competencies. 

  • These measure key behaviors and internal assumptions that lead to high fulfillment, high achievement leadership. 

  • These reflect inner beliefs that limit effectiveness, authentic expression, and empowering leadership.

  • Collect themes from the most relevant stakeholders about performance and leadership. Themes are aggregated across interviews to maintain confidentiality while providing targeted areas of feedback.

- FAQ

Questions our clients often ask

  • Our comprehensive 12-session engagement is for executives working on multiple focuses and longer-term challenges and goals. Our targeted 6-session engagement is for executives working with a narrower focus on 1-2 goals. We also offer bespoke packages based on the client’s needs.

  • The sessions to kick off the engagement and debrief 360 feedback are 90 minutes each. Most other sessions are 60 minutes long.

  • It depends. If the review is fairly recent and includes feedback both from managers and direct reports, a 360 assessment is not always necessary. However, if the engagement requires more updated or holistic feedback, we would still recommend the 360.
