Ready For Success? Get an executive coach.
If you want to run the race of your life, hone your talent, then do what successful athletes and leaders do, get a coach.
High performing athletes wouldn’t dream of not having a coach. Doesn’t your career or don’t you for that matter deserve the best support? If ‘000’s of execs use an executive coach to get ahead, what do they know that you don’t?
Here’s the heads up on 10 great reasons it may be time to take on coaching to run your best race. Do you…?
- Have important or unexplored goals: You want to clarify them, understand if they’re right for you, need to plan for them or be supported to achieve them.
- Desire personal growth or change: You have a strong desire to improve, such as your leadership skills, resilience or enhance your performance in other ways. Or you wish to effect high performing teams or overcome specific challenges in your professional life.
- Feel stuck: You feel stagnant or stuck in your current role or career path. Or you’re not getting the promotion you want or deserve or are seeking guidance to break through barriers and reach your full potential.
- Have challenges holding you back: You’re encountering challenges, possibly repeating the same old behaviours or beliefs that are not working for you. They might relate to communication or relationship issues, conflict resolution or time management etc. Or you might simply be facing a big change such as managing a team, and recognise the value of external independent and expert support in addressing these challenges.
- Face new responsibilities: You’re transitioning into a new leadership role, taking on increased responsibilities. Or you’re navigating complex organisational changes, and you want support in adapting to these changes effectively.
- Need greater self-awareness: You’re open to self-reflection and eager to gain deeper insights into your strengths, weaknesses, blind spots, and leadership style.
- Want to commit to your self-development: You’re committed to investing time, effort, and resources into your personal and professional development. You recognise that coaching is key proactive step to moving toward.
- Want to know how you compare to others: If a coach can reveal (and statistically prove) you’re in the top 5%, say, of leaders in a particular competency, or the bottom 5% in another, isn’t it time you knew? This is a powerful frame for your development and for building on strengths. Coaching is a great way to gain new perspectives especially around how others see you or how you come across when it matters, such as interviews.
- Want to lead…brilliantly: One of the most important reasons people take on executive coaches is to hone leadership skills.
- Want to be supported and stretched to succeed: You’re looking for someone you can completely trust, who has the expertise and care to hold you accountable for setting and achieving your goals, maintaining focus, and progressing towards your desired outcomes.
