EXECUTIVE COACHING
Executive coaching improves staff retention, increases productivity, and improves the performance of all employees.
Approximately 25 to 40 percent of Fortune 500 companies use executive coaches, according to the Hay Group, an international human-resources consultancy
Studies over the last ten years report the following return on investment (ROI) from coaching:
• In 2001 a Manchester Inc. study demonstrated a 7-fold ROI from coaching.
• According to Fortune magazine a conservative estimate on the ROI of coaching is more than six times the cost of coaching.
• Companies that provide training alone get a 22.4% increase in productivity but when this is combined with coaching it rises to 88%. Gerald Olivero, Denise Bane & Richard Kopelman, Public Personnel Management.
Executive coaching has proven highly beneficial to organisations of all sizes. Executive coaching improves staff retention, increases productivity, and improves the performance of all employees and is particularly helpful for:
• New managerial teams.
• Executives who want to improve their relationship with workers.
• Professionals who want to appreciate their work more and create a better working environment.
• Leaders who want to change their managerial styles.
Executive coaching is sometimes used when a company desires a change in their leadership style. Having an executive coach assist with introducing these change helps prevent rebellion or resistance among different members of the team.
Everyone needs a coach. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a basketball player, a tennis player, a gymnast or a bridge player.
