About Executive Coaching
Coaching is described as partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximise their personal and professional potential. The coach works collaboratively with their client to find solutions that can enhance their skills, help them face challenges in their careers, and build the steps to achieve their business goals.
The efficacy of coaching was clearly demonstrated by the International Coaching Federation (ICF) in their 2016 Global Coaching Client Study. 99% of participants reported they were “somewhat” or “very satisfied” with their overall experience, 96% said they would repeat the process and 86% recovered their investment.
Executive Coaching is useful throughout the entire career lifespan – deciding career direction; job search and interviews; starting a new job; growing within organisations; changing jobs within and between organisations; managing retrenchment and retirement. Some of the areas that clients commonly seek to improve and develop through coaching are:
– Boosting professional performance
– Strategy formulation
– Project management and efficiencies
– Workload management and priority conflicts
– Interpersonal skills and team dynamics
– Managing difficult bosses and reports
– Balancing work and life
– Career transitions
– Facing retrenchment
While there is much anecdotal and testimonial evidence of the benefits of coaching, the aforementioned Study provided solid evidence – on the personal effectiveness front improvements of 67% in work-life balance, 80% in confidence and 72% in relationships and communication skills were reported. Similarly, on the productivity side, improvements of 70% in work performance, 61% in business management, 57% in time management and above 50% in team effectiveness.

Our Coach will assess your professional history, working style, and other qualities to understand your best attributes. They will then help you leverage these attributes in the workforce.
Working with an Executive Coach can illuminate communication flaws, issues in direct reporting, gaining perspective on your own skills and capabilities. It is an opportunity to identify and strengthen your professional competencies while broadening internal relationships with colleagues and team members of different personalities, cultural backgrounds, perspectives and work methods.
An Executive Coach will also ensure that you stay inspired and on track.

Additionally, not only will these skills help you gain an advantage in the business world, they are also valuable skills that can be applied to facing life.
You might be facing a period of exhaustive job-seeking and the yawning gap between employments. Change can be daunting. Job hunting can be a tiring process, and there is also the risk of developing job search depression, which impacts your mental wellbeing. Our Coach is here to help you stay motivated so that you may find the strength to land your next job.
Our Coach provides advice, encouragement, and a shoulder to lean on as you transition from one role to another. You will be accompanied in your journey from the moment you decide to look for a new job until you feel settled in the position.
The coach will help you:
– Develop an action plan based on the type of work you are looking for, and your long-term and short-term professional goals.
– Discover your strengths and weaknesses, using the former to enhance your applications while working on the latter towards future opportunities.
– Enhance your job search experience by helping you with update your resume or LinkedIn profiles, share job search strategies, or help boost your skills.
– Prepare for interviews by rehearsing and role play, receive tips to face your interviewers with confidence.
– Stay motivated, especially if you’re not hearing back from employers after sending out multiple applications.
Behavioural change takes time. It may differ from person to person, and there is no easy answer to this. With patience and effort, you will see results as long as you keep working on them. Together with our Coach, you will learn to stay motivated and be kept accountable for your successes.
