Empowering managers and leaders to drive meaningful change.
We offer a highly regarded development programme for front line managers and team leaders, to improve their ability to achieve results through people, by developing the skill, and will, to hold often ‘courageous’ conversations with their people about everyday events that matter; from setting high expectations, to handling difficult workplace issues.
Together we fully customise the programme to your particular culture and circumstances. Learning impact is achieved through understanding good technique via pre-work and then applying that technique through role plays in customised case studies and scenarios. Learning application is immediate with participants making specific commitments to apply what they learn which can be monitored subsequently by their manager.
For more senior managers we focus on building leadership capability and performance, coaching and supporting them; and assessing and developing individual teams.
Leadership development and coaching are both processes focused on enhancing an individual’s ability to lead effectively and aim to help leaders become more effective, inspire their teams, and achieve long-term success in their roles. We offer:
- Individual leadership coaching and development – tailored to the needs of the leader being coached.
- Transition coaching to accelerate the transition of leaders into a new role or organisation so they become fully productive more quickly and establish themselves confidently and credibly.
- Support for CEOs and leaders to build and develop high performing teams.
- Leadership skills programmes with tools to support leaders to motivate, inspire and develop their people.
- Identification and development of key talent/building leadership succession pipelines.
- Development of competency frameworks which identify the competencies required for organisational success.
Building Leadership Capability & Executive Coaching FAQs
The cost depends on what programme is agreed, but as a guide, 6 individual coaching sessions over a 6-month timeframe, would cost in the vicinity of $7,500 plus GST.
Transition coaching of say 6 sessions, 3 weeks apart, would cost about $10,000 plus GST.
Leadership coaching is “The art of facilitating the performance, learning and development of another”.
Leadership coaching empowers leaders to better inspire and influence others, foster a positive organisational culture, and achieve personal and professional growth.
Coaching works best when it is flexible, adaptive and aligned with the leader’s personality, personal goals, the challenges they face, the broader organisational needs and culture they operate in. The approach and style should be adapted to the needs of the leader being coached and the organisation context in which they work, as well as the outcomes they are looking to achieve from the coaching engagement. Key points are:
- The coach and the leader being coached should have a fit and affinity with each other.
- The relationship needs to be open and confidential, with the coach being a trusted adviser and sounding board.
- The style needs to be facilitative – both challenging and supportive drawing on effective facilitation skills – listening, questioning, clarifying, reflecting, summarising to help the leader generate their own insights and solutions.
- The approach needs to be focused on raising self-awareness of how the leader impacts others, personal strengths to draw on, development opportunities and behaviour change required.
- To be successful, there must be a focus on outcomes, with individual coaching outcomes and appropriate strategies and actions being co-developed and ‘owned’ by the leader being coached.
