Workplace Coaching

Bringing external coaches into your workplace

External coaching for executives is rapidly being accepted worldwide as one of the most effective ways of improving workplace performance.
Executives take on coaches just like successful athletes do - there is nothing 'wrong' with their game, but there is always room for improvement.

The coach's job is to review and challenge styles of dealing with people and strategies for getting things done. Coaching assists managers to become more effective and maintain peak performance for longer. Coaches provide a supportive and objective sounding board, support and honest feedback.

For further informaiton on hiring coaches for your organisation please contact us. Read on for more details and coach profiles.

The types of organisations hiring external coaches:

Organisations that promote accountability
Organisations willing to invest in their people
Organisations committed to staff development
Organisations that value well balanced staff

The sectors hiring the most coaches include IT, professional services, banking, finance and telecommunications.

A survey in 2000 showed 6 out of 10 organisations in the USA were offering coaching or other developmental
counselling to their managers and executives.

Organisations are hiring coaches to:

• Help achievers get to the next level
• Facilitate greater work-life balance
• Improve an individual's leadership skills
• Reward high performing staff
• Deal with pressure after a merger or down-sizing
• Deal with under-performers
• Help a team achieve its goals

"Executive coaches are not for the meek. They're for people who value unambiguous feedback. All coaches have one thing in common; it's that they are ruthlessly results-oriented." FAST COMPANY MAGAZINE

The main benefits of coaching

According to a 1999 survey of 4,000 US organisations, the main benefits of coaching are:

•Improved individual performance
•Better bottom line results, profit and competitiveness
•Development of people to the next level
•Confidence raising and personal empowerment
•Improved relationship between all staff / staff retention

In a recent US study of 100 executives receiving coaching, it was found that the coaching was worth up to 6 times its investment

Using external coaches - the process

A Results account manager provides one point of contact to manage the following process:
Step 1: Extensive briefing process on client culture
Step 2: Client selects a team of certified coaches
Step 3: Introductory presentations to key stakeholders
Step 4: Managers choose their coach
Step 5: Coach and client meet to ensure compatability & develop goals
Step 6: Goals are signed off by the organisation
Step 7: Coaching commences
Step 8: Coach reports to account manager to monitor targets and outcomes
Step 9: Account manager reports to organisation on completion or as agreed

Additionally a rigorous 360 degree feedback process is available for organisations wanting to see measurable feedback before or after coaching (or both)

Results has a large team of coaches to choose from in most regions.

Results coaches are:
• Great communicators
• Confident, successful people in their own right
• Insightful and exceptionally good listeners
• Interested in their own development and education
• Truly committed to people's development
• Highly professional and ethical
• Comfortable dealing with high net worth individuals
• Aware of the issues faced by executives

"Coaching has helped my people focus more on what's important and be less distracted by the day to day problems and challenges they face."

"If you want a competitive advantage, spend a little less on training and bring in some coaches. Coaching deals with an individual and their real training needs instead of applying a scattergun approach."
