The investment made to prepare a person to move into the ranks of management are
substantial. So what happens when this manager - either a first-level supervisor or a senior vice president - runs into challenging
situations that may be new or especially complex? More and more organizations are calling upon experienced "executive coaches"
to work with these managers on a confidential one-on-one basis to help them succeed.
Coaches are unique because (1) they do not need to be in the limelight getting credit
for what is accomplished which means no one else needs to know who is being coached, (2) they cannot perform tasks themselves,
they work through others and (3) short term issues are dealt with while building long term skills.
So what kind of help do managers ask for? HROutfitters has a number of experienced
executive coaches who have helped executives
- deal with a problem employee
- increase teamwork and collaboration
among direct reports
- improve cooperation and communication among peers
- develop department specific goals, strategies,
and rallying points
- learn problem solving techniques
- prepare for more effective meetings
- build confidence and
competence in presentation skills
- develop skills for influencing others
- execute strategies for influencing upper
management
