Executive coaching packages
One to one performance coaching is increasingly being recognised as the way for both organisations and individuals to improve performance. The Brefi Group executive coaching packages provide a powerful process for improving individual and corporate performance.
The structured, outcomes-led process guides individuals – and teams – through their own business challenges, clarifies issues, examines limiting beliefs and generates solutions with a compelling course of action.
Coaching in its role as facilitator is particularly valuable during the budget and strategy planning season. And coaching a team before a presentation can dramatically improve performance – as well as self confidence.
Brefi Group can design a wide range of coaching packages to suit individual clients. Here are some of the more popular.
We also offer distance coaching. By combining our wide range of downloadable resources on the Internet with telephone and e-mail coaching we can take you through a complete coaching programme just as if you were in the same room as your coach.
Executive coaching
The Brefi Group Corporate Coaching Process provides the ultimate in focused and directed senior executive development. There is an emphasis on the ?whole? person, and no stone is left unturned in order to identify strengths and development needs. Firm trust and a strong bond forms between the coach and the client, and through a structured, outcomes-led process, we clarify issues, examine limiting beliefs and generate solutions with a compelling course of action. In this way, individuals experience genuine and lasting change. They become both the person they want to be and also the person that others would prefer!
A typical coaching programme will follow this structure: -
- Intake meeting – Meet the client and their line manager (if they have one) to agree the broad scope and outcomes of the coaching. Agree the collection of information through 360° feedback, interviews, psychometric assessment, and existing performance reviews
- Feedback – Feedback all the data to the client, to agree strengths, development opportunities, and a draft plan
- Agreement – Review the plan with the client and line manager to reach a firm agreement about the key areas to focus on for improvement, the desired outcomes and timeline
- Coaching – This can take a number of forms, including work shadowing, video, guided practice, review of learning materials, continuous feedback and learner-centred activity
- Progress review – Gather further data to assess the extent to which improvements are actually being made, and review this data with the client and line manager to agree next steps
- Closure – Agreement with the client and line manager of a forward action plan (that could include further coaching) to ensure that the client continues to develop.
A typical Corporate Coaching programme can involve the client in the process from three to 18 months. The duration of the programme is agreed with the client and the line manager (if appropriate) at the same time as the coaching plan.
The process achieves genuine and lasting change because there is :-
- Dependable and reliable confidentiality assured through the coach and the line manager
- Clear and consistent support from the line manager. (If the client is the boss, they need to be clearly and consistently committed to the process)
- Sufficient body of data that the client can believe in and see the need for change
- Balanced and objective feedback about strengths and development opportunities
- Client enthusiasm and motivation to change based on a vision of how they want to be in the future
- Supportive and imaginative coaching that is based on real-life work situations
- Further data collected to assess actual progress against the baseline
- Closure and/or agreed continuing support from the line manager and the coach
