Executive Business Coaching
Our executive coaching is used by many high performance organisations including Nike, yet our cost effective solutions mean that SME's also utilise our highly experienced executive coaches. The road to success starts with an initial analysis and a "get to know us meeting," Protostar will then assign the most appropriate executive coach.
To support key leaders, executive business coaching will typically last around 18 months and consist of around 10 face to face meetings of 2 hours, plus a number of telephone coaching sessions. We also offer "Rapid Results Coaching" which is a far more intense set of 10 sessions, typically over a 3 month period, when you need to up your skills quickly or prepare for a major event or promotion.
All Protostar coaches are qualified to diploma level and have extensive management experience. For details of Protostar coaches click here. We can also put you in touch with high performance leaders who have benefited from our executive coaching.
We often get asked about the "technique" used by an executive coach and that is another area where we stand out from the crowd. Instead of the more common "one size fits all" approach, our executive coaches adapt their approach to the needs of the client and the issue presented by them. This leads to far quicker results and allows for an action plan to be set at the end of each session.
What Type Of Coaching Is Best For You?
Executive Leadership Coaching
Executive leadership coaching is particularly effective when a leader is
Isolated due to being at the top of the "tree"
At a major decision point in their career
Soon to take on a strategic role
A minority employee
A female leader in male dominated environments
An International leader in an unfamiliar country
Rapid Results Executive Coaching
Rapid Results Executive Coaching is an intense set of 10 sessions, over a 2 or 3 month period, normally in response to a specific time constrained need, such as preparation for an event, a sudden promotion or simply because the manager must up their skills quickly.
This process is all about speed and therefore timings and locations for the meetings are very flexible, often including late night phone calls, to help prepare for key events the following day. The style of coaching is more directive than in our standard executive coaching arrangements and the sessions will often combine coaching with a practical working session, for instance planning an event, scripting a conversation or researching specific facts.
Executive Business Coaching
Executive business coaching is essentially one to one management or business training, provided when a generic training course would not be suitable or when the development needs is specific to the behaviours or personality of an employee.
Alternatively it could be designed to assist the manager in running or developing a business. Such coaching would be bespoke and come after a thorough training needs analysis.
Outplacement & Career Coaching
For individual managers and senior employees, Protostar can provide career coaching, emotional support, job seeking skills, CV construction and interview preparation.
For those who are at a turning point in their career, our executive coaches can help to identify the most rewarding and motivating career path
