Coaching

The COACH Approach Leadership Training Program

Coaching is the number one skill that leaders need in the ever-changing world of work. Coaching skills provide leaders with the tools to bring out the best in their team members.

 

Leaders who use coaching as their approach to leadership get more out of those they lead.

 

Statistics show that leaders who use a coaching approach in their conversations have team members and colleagues who are more engaged, productive, accurate, collaborative, and creative. These team members grow, work at their highest potential, and are more inclined to stay in their current organizations.

 

The COACH approach program uses simple, impactful communication tools that are based on research and can be applied to any situation, whether you’re in a time crunch or having a performance review. Leaders who take the COACH approach empower their team members to perform at their very best, increasing trust, developing healthy relationships, and improving outcome. By exceeding expectations, leaders can spend less time managing people and more time leading in a way that uses their time and skills more effectively.

If you want to be more effective and drive high-performing teams that produce exceptional results, the COACH approach is the way to get there.

  • 77% of respondents at a Fortune 500 company indicated that coaching had a significant impact on at least one of nine business measures. In addition, they uncovered that overall productivity and employee satisfaction were the most positively impacted areas (which in turn has an impact on customer satisfaction, employee engagement, quality, annualised financial results, and more). Source: Executive Briefing: Case Study on the ROI of Executive Coaching, Merrill C.

Rod Miller

Advisor, Coach, Educator

As a Certified Leadership Coach and former CEO, I know what it takes to be successful at every level of the organization. I work with executive leaders who want to be more strategic and have strategy carried throughout the entire organization.

Strategic Coaching is designed to help you, and your organization achieve the strategic priorities that matter the most to you.

Coaching is a co-created process between the coach and the client. Together, we discover what is most vital for you and bring that to life in your organization. I use an inquiry-based approach to help you identify strategic possibilities available to you and together we prioritize those possibilities bringing them to life within the organization. The result is a well-defined strategy aligned to implementation.

“A leader is anyone who takes responsibility for finding the potential in people and processes, and who has the courage to develop that potential.”

– Brené Brown

Coaching helps people reach their potential.

Coaching is a curated relationship co-created by the client who identifies their goals and desired outcomes. The coach provides expert support to help them achieve those outcomes in alignment with their mission and vision for the future.

Whether it’s your personal or professional life, the most meaningful lives and organizations are led by people who know themselves and how they connect to others and the organization.

Together, we co-design how you can get the most out of the coaching relationship in a custom designed program.

Coaching provides support and structure to explore what’s possible, to set achievable goals with the opportunity to gain greater clarity, traction, and a plan to move forward.

If you’re keen to understand more about yourself and the potential of those you work alongside, coaching can provide the tools you need to know yourself better so you can achieve success in every realm of your life.
