Coaches specialised in Leadership coaching

What does a leadership coach do?

A leadership coach is a sparring partner for anyone who leads or is growing into a leadership role: from a first team leader position to a spot on the board of directors. In the conversations, you work on questions that you rarely feel free to discuss within your organization. For example, how do you provide strong direction without losing connection? How do you have that difficult conversation you've been postponing for weeks? How do you stay upright between the expectations from above and the workload of your team? An external coach has no vested interest in your organization, and that precisely is what makes the conversation different from one with your own manager or HR.

When is it useful?

Typical reasons include a new role with more responsibility, a team that isn't performing as you hoped, doubts about whether leadership truly suits you, or the feeling that you're mostly putting out fires and no longer focusing on the real course. You don't have to be stuck to start; many leaders use coaching precisely as periodic maintenance for their own functioning, just as they organize it for their team. A coaching program usually involves a series of conversations spread over several months, using concrete situations from your own practice as working material.
