Why Hire a Coach?
Coaching is the fastest growing field in developing human potential. Estimates are that it is growing at more than forty percent (40%) per year. Organisations and individuals are realising the benefits coaching can bring to achieving performance and realising potential.
In 2006 studies conducted of groups of senior managers in two multi-national corporations found that a 6 month coaching intervention proved highly successful. Scores across a range of ten key indicators averaged out at 77% effective, for example:
Enhanced Self-Awareness (91% effective)
Increased Self-Confidence (83%)
Increased Leadership Skills (80%)
Improved Goal Setting Abilities (80%)
Lowered stress levels (60%)
In addition, the study measured success levels on unique individual objectives as set by the individuals being coached themselves. It found a 79% level of efficacy in that regard. Other studies have similarly found there to be high levels of effectiveness of this medium of intervention.

Reasons for Using a Coach
|
Here are just five of the many advantages of employing an executive coach for you or your team:
1) The development of new strategies
A coach will help you to understand how to recognise, address and resolve common issues and how to develop strategies to cope with emotions such as stress or anger.
2) The strengthening of individual and team capabilities
You will learn how to be more confident and assured, and how to develop your own personal strengths. As well as individual development, an executive coach will also help team members to work together more efficiently and effectively.
3) Individual motivation and growth
Another benefit is personal growth – in terms of goals, ambitions and motivation. You will also develop your self-awareness and learn strategies that will help you to achieve your personal and professional goals.
4) More effective resolution of any issues
A good executive coach will be able to advise with a whole range of personal and work issues. They will also demonstrate how to achieve your full potential in different areas of your life (including your business.)
5) Higher productivity and profitability
Finally – and definitely by no means least! – an executive coach will enable you to work more productively. The end result for your business will be greater profitability. And it doesn't end there – the coach will also be able to show you how to improve your company's profitability more directly, through a range of versatile business strategies. |
