I always start with understanding the person’s current state and gathering historical information about how they have arrived at their current situation. From there, we identify areas where a person wants to improve, breakthrough, change, etc., and conduct relevant assessments before creating goals with customized action steps and ways to measure progress.
My coaching style is open, honest, and encouraging with no sugar coating. I take a journey with people to help them uncover answers rather than provide them with east solutions. I guide people to explore and question their assumptions, learnings from past actions, and future goals.
Experienced managers often need the development of soft skills and higher-level thinking in order to advance into senior leadership roles. People ranging from senior managers to Directors will have a tendency to keep their hands in too many areas of their area of responsibility and can easily become the bottleneck preventing progress. My focus with experienced managers is usually around sharpening communication and critical thinking skills along with implementing tools that allow them to build higher levels of trust and accountability with their direct reports.
I have years of experience working with individual contributors helping to improve performance, develop skills to help them become more effective and efficient, and create career goals. In many cases, some of the same assessments and tools used in working with managers and leaders can be beneficial to individual contributors to understanding motivations, strengths, weaknesses, and interests.
