Executive coaching has become a popular option for leadership development, and it’s estimated that corporations spend upwards of $1 billion annually for such programs. Despite the growing demand for coaches, questions remain around what qualifies a practitioner to be a coach since no one agency exists to oversee standards and accountability for this profession, and is coaching a good investment of your organization’s time and money. Nevertheless, to compete in fast changing markets, a business needs flexible leaders who can adapt competencies and engage effectively with a diverse workforce. Strategic coaching can be a tool that improves executive performance.
This 2-part series will explore two current issues and trends of executive coaching that can bring deeper insight to human capital management executives as they plan and implement coaching practices within their own organizations.
Audience: Executives responsible for Leadership Development, Talent Management, Executive Development, Succession Management, Learning & Development, and Coaching
