Realization
begins with reflection
Leadership development begins with questions, not answers. Executive
coaching starts with a breadth and depth of questions intended to create
awareness of what is and what might be. The discovery phase may include:
• Individual purpose and vision
• Leadership aspiration and legacy
• Core business challenges
• Understanding leading strengths
• Awareness of patterns, beliefs and behaviors that limit effectiveness
Start with a vision
All meaningful change begins with a vision of a future that evokes
passion and intention. The energy to create sustainable change
is driven by a vision for change that resonates with our deepest
beliefs and values.
Identify and leverage what works
An understanding of an individual’s leadership strengths is
critical to knowing what strategic path to take. Justin creates in-depth
profiles for each client to elicit a deeper appreciation of his or
her true talents and gifts. As clients gain awareness of these talents,
they can leverage them to realize their highly individual visions.
Emotional intelligence is essential
Executive coaching focuses on the “how” of leadership.
Justin coaches clients to lead with emotional intelligence through:
• Understanding the “intended” and “unintended” consequences
of patterns, beliefs and behavior
• Strategies for increasing influence
• Building more effective, sustainable relationships
• Skillfully and openly communicating decision making
• Resolving conflict with greater efficacy
• Communicating with more intention and transparency
Listen to expressed needs
Meaningful leadership coaching begins with listening. Justin listens
carefully and thoughtfully to the opportunities and challenges
his clients face, then creates coaching strategies and solutions
to address them. |
