What Is Coaching?

There are many coaching providers in the marketplace.  People Vision subscribe to the CIPD’s definition of coaching:

It focuses on current and future performance/behavior and skill base.

• It is used to address a wide range of issues.  Personal issues may be discussed, but the emphasis is on performance at work.
• It provides people with feedback on both their strengths and weaknesses.
• It is time-bounded.
• Coaching activities have both organizational and individual goals.

In a 2006 CIPD Learning and Development report it suggests that 79% of respondent organisations use coaching activates. We believe this demonstrates the value that coaching brings to an organization.

In our experience, the key themes that emerge during executive coaching are:

• Team cohesion
• Changing behaviours
• Raising profiles and Influencing a power base
• Goal setting
• Cultural differences

What are the Benefits of Coaching?

Executive Coaching is relevant and beneficial at several points in an employee’s working life:

Induction into a new organization

• Promotion into a new role
• When performance has come to a plateau
• Preparation and grooming for a new role
• Enhancing employee talent
