What is executive and leadership coaching?
Coaching is an individualized and confidential process where the coach provides a trusting and structured environment for exploration, dialogue and designing practices for growth and development.
True North coaches help individuals examine their leadership competencies, how others experience them and clarify goals and action steps to achieve those goals. By focusing on the present and the future, our coaches help the person draw on their strengths to maximize their personal and professional potential.
What happens during a coaching session?
Initial sessions may include stakeholder interviews, personality/style assessments, and reflective exercises. As a result, goals and action steps are developed, and these form the basis of coaching sessions. While some structure and direction is essential, True North coaches remains flexible and accompany the client in exploration during each session.
Does coaching work?
The International Coaches Federation says “Coaching is an interactive process that helps individuals and organizations to develop more rapidly and produce more satisfying results. As a result of coaching, clients set better goals, take more action, make better decisions and more fully use their natural strengths.”
ROI studies show that coaching can lead to 70% improvement in performance, 80% increased confidence and 99% satisfaction with the overall coaching experience. (ICF Global Study)
