Executive Leadership Coaching

Coaching and facilitating leaders to change their behaviors in order to create high-functioning and successful teams.

Is there a behavior that you are motivated to change in order to become a successful leader?

The executives and future leaders that are most successful are able to identify their weaknesses and to change leadership behavior. They don’t do this by attending a 1 or 2 day seminar. In fact, The Association of Training and Development, ASTD, has determined that most training doesn’t work for sustained and adaptive change. So, what works? Feedback, planning and behavioral coaching. Also, being motivated to change helps!

Feedback

Asking for, and receiving feedback on your behavior takes courage and commitment. How else do you know how you are impacting those around you?  You have a finite amount of time and energy. Why not spend it on changing the leadership behaviors that will make the largest impact.  For instance, if you learn that you are a micromanager, providing space for your employees to make mistakes and learn will lead to a more productive and engaged work environment.

Planning

Once you identify what behavior you want to change, and then create a plan to change.  The plan can be your road map to help you change a negative behavior into a positive behavior. An example would be that the micromanager decides to become less controlling. The leader engages a coach, plans on asking for regular feedback from employees and identifies specific projects that she will “let go” of.

Coaching

Rock-solid management coaches can provide you with the tools and resources to implement your plan. They are your success advocate. The coach will work with you to provide accountability and to help you understand how your behavior affects others. The coach will provide you with a mirror with which to view you. Athletic stars have coaches; surgeons have coaches, why not you?

Motivation

There is not a great deal to say here. Behavior changing and coaching will only work if the individual is motivated and truly desires change. We have all had employees that would not change a behavior. We know how frustrating that can be.

Why Cindy?

I am certified through the coach training institute, and I am credentialed through the International Coach Federation, the international governing body of coaches. I have years of experience working in human resources, training and education.  I have worked with all levels of the organization from custodian to CEO to help them become better leaders, communicators and team members, and I have worked as a Vice President of Human Resources.  I have coached, mentored or advised hundreds of managers, employees and clients on their professional development, and helped them to create momentum to achieve their goals.

I am passionate about helping you find ways to increase you and your team’s effectiveness.  I As a leader, I have made the mistake of dismissing self-improvement because I felt I did not have time and I have worked with leaders who have done the same. The result has been sadly dysfunctional teams with high turnover. There’s nothing more devastating for everyone when a high-achieving employee leaves because of the manager.  Coaching provides the safe environment for managers to identify and nurture their leadership skills, so they can build creative, respectful, and lasting teams.
