Leadership coaching fiction and fact...
Leadership coaching fiction: Leadership coaching teaches a set of techniques, styles and mannerisms that I can reproduce and apply once I've learned how to do them.
Leadership coaching fact: Leadership coaching does not teach you to copy and plug in any one style. A professional coach's impartial and honest observation helps you recognize your own leadership style, strengths and weaknesses. They then work with you to hone your strengths and seek ways to transform your weaknesses through practice with a group and individually. You become the leader you are meant to be.
Leadership coaching fiction: People are born leaders or they're not.
Leadership coaching fact: Sure, some people are more naturally charismatic and people will follow. But this is a very limited definition of leadership. Everyone has a unique set of skills within them that can be put into action to make them better leaders. Leadership coaching will help you gain awareness of your inner leadership skills, your weak points, and your leadership goals. Once you've identified those skills you possess that will work to your advantage, you learn to better use them. A second, equally important point is that leadership is not just about leading the team; it is also about leading them in the right direction. A good leader also needs to be able to target key business goals and develop good strategies for getting there. Leadership coaching helps you improve your ability to build and implement effective strategies. If you lead your team in the right direction, they stay motivated!
Leadership coaching fiction: Leadership coaching is ok for beginners, but experienced professionals don't need it.
Leadership coaching fact: Would you expect a star athlete to say, OK, I've made the Olympic trials, now I don't need a coach anymore? It's no different for business leadership coaching. The more senior you become, the more valuable a skilled executive career coach is to you. When you need to take a fresh look at an old problem, leadership coaching can help you increase awareness. As neutral and objective outside experts, professional coaches help you find what is blocking progress and focus on innovative solutions. And at various points in your career, you will face particular business challenges (your own Olympics). You can access, fine-tune and use the right skills to tackle the particular challenge with the help of leadership coaching.

EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP COACHING
Leadership Coaching Importance
Why?
It is known that leaders are at the core of organizations. However, shocking leadership development statistics show that 71% of companies do not feel their current leaders are able to carry their organization into the future. In order to combat these statistics, organizations are implementing a coaching program to increase leader effectiveness.
Strange?
Coaching leaders may sound strange, but in a study done of Fortune 1000 companies, 48% of leaders that underwent coaching exhibited an increase in work quality. This led to higher engagement and productivity, improving their effectiveness in leadership roles. Coaching also provides the outlet leaders need to motivate and inspire their team
Leadership coaching has a two-fold meaning: it refers to working with the leaders to help them maximize their abilities, and it also refers to a leadership style that executives use.
The 5 key benefits:
1
Empowerment
Coaching empowers leaders to do exceptional work. Coaches establish an advantageous relationship that uncovers hidden strengths and weaknesses within the leader. Goals will be created to enable leaders to pinpoint their weaknesses and track their progress. Reflective sessions with a coach empower a leader to fully recognize their improvements and appreciate the work they have done to meet those goals.
2
New Insight
Leaders gain new perspective on everyday responsibilities from their coach. The coach pushes them to step back and reflect when a leader is having a bad day or week, often uncovering a deeper problem. Together, they discover new insights into the leader's reaction by analyzing the problem and creating a plan for similar situations in the future.
3
Free Thinking
Coaching reduces narrow-minded thinking in leaders. Coaches encourage the leader to open their thought patterns and consider other points of view by asking questions. This benefits the leader by provoking free thoughts and encouraging flexible leadership. The Center for Management and Organization Effectiveness calls flexible leadership a “business necessity” as it allows for quick, creative, and precise decision making under pressure.
4
Enhanced Performance
Targeting coaching to a leader's problem area makes a huge difference in attitude and abilities. Coaching allows the leader to learn and implement new leadership techniques tailored to the leader's weaknesses. Techniques include the leader avoiding the terms “but,” “no,” or “however” as they accidentally discourage ideas or answering questions with questions as they tend to supply all the ideas for their team. Individuals that were difficult to reach before will respond better to their leader's new approaches.
5
Improved Communication
Coaching enables leaders to realize that their communication isn't always as clear as they think. Coaches will highlight areas of communication that need improvement and practice those areas with the leader.
Coaches can also teach leaders how to communicate with individuals of different personality types, cultures, or ages using their past experiences as examples. Good communication skills allow people to connect with one another. A coach who can guide an individual to communicate effectively will improve their credibility and overall leadership abilities.
