Consulting Intitiative: Executive Coaching

DhruvSatya

Unless the key executives (key members of the senior management) are coached from time-to-time they will not be able to provide the appropriate leadership and drive the relevant extraordinary performance outcomes. Also some of them have to be coached on a one on one basis and confidentially. There has to be a coaching mechanism which also makes the top management accountable and ensures they develop their competencies and achieve their BOLD PROMISES. Also in some cases behavioral and attitudinal corrections have to be made through mentoring and therapy at times otherwise their interpersonal performance can severely affect the bonding and hence the performance.
