“Your skills as a coach are outstanding. As I think of myself and where I am at today, part of it is through your support, guidance through coaching that allowed me to realize my potential. For that I am forever thankful to have you as my coach.” I.J.
Within today’s working environment, authentic and agile leadership that focuses on people has become even more essential to combat high levels of disengagement, poor retention rates, and competition for recruitment.
We believe that Leadership is not just something we do. It is an expression of who we are. The best leaders are the best learners and recognize that leadership is a journey, not a destination. Leadership begins when we come to understand who we are, what we care about, and why we do what we do. Leadership Coaching facilitates that journey. Leadership Coaching draws upon the resourcefulness, creativity, and insight of the leader to generate learning, development, and positive change.
Authentic Leadership comes from the alignment of our values, purpose, beliefs, behaviours and our life experiences. When leaders are authentic, able to show vulnerability and humility and develop genuine working relationships, they create a safe and trusting culture that fosters employee value, engagement and inspiration.
Agile Leadership has become an essential skill for leaders in today’s complex ever-changing environment. Research tells us agility is not a single competency but an interconnected set of developed character traits and skills that allow a leader to continuously adapt to new contexts and demands of leadership.
One-on-One Leadership
Coaching is offered for leaders seeking a personalized experience to deepen self-awareness, improve performance, enhance learning and development and ultimately to achieve fulfillment and success in their roles.
Through the use of different lenses and tools, the coach provides the individual with opportunities to dig deeper into who they are as a leader and how it impacts their work with others.
Leadership Coaching also asks powerful questions such as: What draws you to leadership? What have you identified as areas for potential growth and development? How does your vision connect with that of the organization? How Authentic and Agile is your leadership?
This type of Leadership Coaching enhances the ability to inspire others to achieve their best by learning and applying coaching principles, mindset, and skills such as active listening, powerful questioning, acknowledgment, and solution-focused coaching.
Our Leadership Coaching can be customized to the number and length of sessions desired by the client to address their individual needs.
