A ‘Thinking Disruptor’ better describes how we help people elevate themselves to that higher performance. Coaching disrupts the stories that we all create around ourselves, so that you can work out what is holding you back from knowing what to do and how best to go forward.
We help each leader identify their major ‘roadblocks’ and challenge their ‘stories’. We then work with them to explore ideas and options for moving forward towards making breakthroughs and higher performance.
We are specialists in behavioural change. Behavioural coaching is highly relevant for industries which undergo rapid and regular change – these transformations require leader agility and adaptability to new behaviours.
Our coaching is as much about helping leaders know how to learn about themselves and adapt their behaviours, as it is about working on specific issues.
The leaders we coach will go through a structured process which is principally stakeholder and values-driven. We ensure these are aligned with business and personal purpose.
We adopt a robust attention to data and feedback to focus the coachee on facts rather than assumptions, and clearly defined and measurable goals.
Clarity is key. Leaders need clarity around what they are adjusting their behaviour to. They need to understand the desired leadership characteristics for the role they are in that help them achieve their personal and the business goals – characteristics which are determined in part by the values of that person, the business and the people they work with (peers, line manager and wider stakeholders).
Leaders being coached will therefore work with us in determining the desired behaviours and key stakeholders.
Feedback from stakeholders (including line managers) is an essential part of the coaching process and the clarity required.
