How Is A Typical Executive Coaching Programme Designed?

Executive coaching solutions are always tailor made to meet the client’s EXACT requirements and desired outcomes.

In order to improve the performance and to accelerate the leader’s professional development it is recommended that the coach and the coachee go through an effective process with well-defined steps.

Phase One
—Develop Formal Commitments

During this phase the coach meets with the client/sponsor to identify the performance issues, formulate outcomes, clarify expectations and get commitments.

This phase can be completed either face to face or on the telephone. There may be some supporting documentation that will need to be completed through email/post.

Phase Two
—Gather Information & Creation of Professional Development Plan

During this phase the coach will gather information about the client's performance issues and will review any existing performance data, conduct some interviews and ask the client to complete some assessments/questionnaires.

The coach will provide feedback and help the client to create a professional development plan.

Phase Three
—Coach

During this phase the actual coaching process begins.

Depending on requirements this can be a mixture of face to face, telephone and email sessions.

Phase Four
—Evaluate and Follow-up

During the final phase the coach reports on the client’s progress, evaluates the coaching assignment and helps the client to build support structures to maintain new behaviours and relationships.
