Is coaching for you?
Coaching has the potential to be a more focused, relevant and cost effective solution than traditional forms of group learning.
The one-to-one nature of coaching provides a more efficient way to customise learning for the individual as opposed to the one-size-fits-all approach of most group learning activities. Combined with self-measures or 360-degree feedback, coaching can optimise client buy-in to learning new behaviours. A series of four or five individualised sessions provides greater on-going structure and reinforcement of learning than one-off event training. Coaching can often be more cost effective than group learning because it has minimal impact on day-to-day business activity, it doesn't require travel and accommodation for out of town participants or the hiring of expensive training venues.
Companies need to be clear about executive coaching and the role it can play in developing organisational capability. It may not be the most appropriate solution in every situation. It’s best applied at middle to senior leadership levels as this is often a key point of leverage for implementing organisational change. A self select approach often works best and considerable up-front influencing and buy-in is a critical key to success. Establishing and maintaining realistic expectations also ensures that executive coaching is kept in perspective. It is not a panacea for all management problems but a highly targeted solution designed to deliver behavioural change in key individuals.
