"One can tell good players by their courage, altruism and imagination"
If you are a Senior professional managing a major change or looking to shift culture in your organisations, you need to make time and acquire the tools that help you thinking through, having the type of conversation that generates insight and learnings, avoid rush, poor decisions, and be practical, persuasive and effective.
Who are you?
- a leader who has the ambition to have a positive impact on the world
- a change maker positioned to drive change and you don't want to miss
- you have from 50 to 200 direct or indirect reports, wider responsiblity and complexity to handle
- your work and your life are the same thing, so you must make sense of it and give it meaning
- you are on a leadership track and you have to get ready for all of the above
BUSINESS COACHING AND MENTORING CAN HELP YOU:
- Exploring business related topics, in specific
- Become cognizant of your personal development hurdles, and master your insights
- Seeing in possibilities and innovate your problem solving process
- Focus and achieve clarity, from inner vision to verbal and symbolic expression and representation that convey clarity to others
- Attune to your uniqueness, your sense of purpose and move it to the centre and front of what you can do for others
- Implement vision and change, practically and effectively
When as leaders we are facing the need to change we need to be effective, and have the courage to stay in the tension which prepares the change, be in the eye of the storm, where our future is being cooked.
In this state we always need support, to stay authentic to the clues and hints we receive, deeply understand the environment and the systems involved and adopt facts, call out intruders that would have us take shortcuts, and most of all, use the right language to define with clarity what's leaving and what's coming. It is only then that our new state (change) will be sustainable and can put us, our new identity, back in a solid and useful relation with the environment (employees, business stakeholders, personal relations, and your own self).

A requirement for leadership.
Yes, it's right. You can't lead anyone if you are unable to get lost and find the way, not any way just for sake of brevity and comfort, but the wise way to get where is needed. This is what all leadership skills (complex problem solving, innovative thinking, communication, integrity, responsibility, etc) are about. Get lost and find the honest way, then take others with you, safely.
COACHING THE PERSON TO CREATE BUSINESS OUTCOMES
"After 20 years leading global operations as well as scaling start ups, in very diverse industries, I realise that as executives we want to have coaching that speaks our language, that understands the business, the strategy, the stakeholders. We need to reflect on ourselves and our struggles in context, making the coaching relevant, not too generic, sharper".

Business Coaching led by an Executive Business Coach means working with someone who knows the business - how it works, the language, and the reality of running one. This is essential, especially if you are operating at Director level.
