The Humanetic Approach to Executive Coaching
Every organization and every client is unique. We’re not psychologists. We’re business people who understand that maximizing the leadership ability of executives maximizes your bottom line. And we are experts at doing just that.
An executive coaching assignment generally takes place over the period of one year. We start by learning our client’s business and how the leader impacts their area of responsibility.
Next, we meet to create a strategy for the coaching engagement. Together we determine the type of assessments needed to understand the leader’s needs and to align with your company’s vision, values, culture and competency priorities.
We provide the leader with an objective, detailed snapshot of their current performance and opportunities. Together, we develop an action plan to leverage the leader’s strengths and address their areas for improvement.
Then, the heavy lifting of coaching begins, with a range of activities and interactions designed to provide timely feedback and support for the developing leader.
Reassessment typically occurs one year after the initial assessment. This allows us to trend an individual’s performance and show progress in a very tangible sense.
