Benefits of Executive Coaching
According to a 2006 Ivey School of Business study*, executives identified five significant benefits of coaching as a leadership development strategy:
1. Continuous Individualized Attention and Feedback - It is through consistent, long term one-on-one development that positive behavioral change gets embedded and becomes routine.
2. Expanded Thinking through Strategic Dialoguing with a Curious Outsider – Dialogue, fueled through powerful questions, helps executives think out loud, become more reflective and gain access to their own tacit knowledge and unexplored strategic thinking.
3. Increased Self Awareness – Powerful coaching acts as a mirror, providing honest feedback and revealing gaps more clearly, helping leaders to be challenged out of their business-as-usual comfort zone, promoting sustained action and increased confidence.
4. Personal Accountability – Leaders invest heavily in their careers through education and hard work. Coaching is another form of investment that brings the critical component of accountability to the forefront.
5. Just-in-Time Learning – Leaders face both on-going and immediate challenges. Coaching can provide essential just-in-time strategizing and problem-solving at critical junctures, sometimes making the difference between average and outstanding performance.
