Executive Coaching

Using professional coaches has been shown to enable individuals to achieve greater personal success, learn from new information, make quicker decisions, face changes and adapt in real time. Coaching provides individuals with the time to focus on their development and gain insights that will enhance their performance. Recent studies have shown a demonstrable return on investment benefit.

At Working Career we have a portfolio of experienced psychologists who have worked as professional coaches in a wide variety of sectors. We aim for measurable and practical changes. The support provided is flexible and dynamic but always rooted by the ethics of our profession.

Executive coaching is a collaborative relationship between an executive and a coach. Sessions are tailored to the coachee's needs but the aims of the relationship are to bring about sustained behavioural change and to transform the quality of the executive's working life.

The style of coaching used will depend on the aims and objectives of the coaching sessions, the goals of the executive and the types of interventions used. For example, coaching can be to develop specific skills such as delegation, time management, or to develop the executive's future career.

Examples of the work our team has completed:

Helping executives identify their unique leadership ‘signature’ and then supporting them to use their style and values to influence, inspire and motivate others.
Coaching management teams to achieve high levels of sustainable performance. This includes developing business strategies, linking strategy to leadership, visioning, resolving team relationship issues and discovering new and effective ways of working and collaborating within and across teams.

Working with a public sector organisation to define the qualities of successful leaders, design assessment tools to measure these qualities, and provide development guidance to managers working towards these qualities.
