Whole Leader Coaching

What is coaching and how is Whole Leader EQ Coaching different?

What is Leadership coaching?

Coaching is generally described as a collaborative learning relationship in which the client defines the agenda and the coach serves as a committed listener, resource and champion of the client’s potential. Coaching is all about the client’s development, in whatever areas he or she wishes to grow.

Leadership coaching typically involves behavioral change. (Some leadership coaching is focused on business and strategic development.) A leader works with a coach to develop a plan of action that addresses behaviors that when improved can affect performance.

Typically, leadership coaching focuses on aspects of leadership related to communication, delegation, decision-making and conflict management. Sometimes the coaching is developmental – building new leadership skills; other times the coaching is corrective, finding ways to overcome behaviors that are interfering with productivity as it relates to people and processes.
