Individual and Team Development Tools

Coaching

Coaching is both a relationship and a process; coach and client partner in a thought-provoking, creative dialogue that inspires the client to maximize their personal and professional potential. Coaches recognize the client as the expert in their own life and work, and they stand firmly for the client; to champion, challenge, hold accountable, and serve as a fierce advocate in recognition of their highest potential.

Coaching provides clarity, confidence and committed action around:

• Purpose, vision and values
• Strengths and challenges
• Filters, assumptions and beliefs
• Objectives, goals, strategies and accountabilities

Individual Coaching

In one-on-one coaching, coach and client work together in a safe, confidential environment to examine the client’s strengths, weaknesses, behaviors and beliefs, identify future possibilities, and create an action plan, with clear goals, benchmarks and accountabilities, that will move the client from where they are to where they want to be.

Team (Cohort) Coaching

Cohort coaching is a dynamic process that brings the power of coaching to a group setting. It is highly effective for intact and flexible teams, boards, and cross-functional groups (i.e. mid-level or senior leadership).

Cohort coaching provides (1) a sense of community and a shared investment in growth, (2) a peer-to-peer learning environment with collective insight and understanding, (3) a laboratory to experiment with developing competencies, and (4) a team of accountability partners.

Assessments
