Executive Leadership & Career Coaching, Winchester, Hampshire
Leadership is about making others better as a result of your presence and making sure that impact lasts in your absence ‘Sheryl Sanberg’
Your Best Professional Self
I believe that being in a management role as a leader is a position of real privilege. In this role, you will ultimately have some power over the daily experience of your whole team, whether for the good or for the bad.
This daily experience that they have, will often sit solely with how you show up in your role and how you treat them. A leader cannot be a leader if no-one is following and whether people want to follow you will be down to their trust in your actions and integrity.
It is very useful therefore to define exactly what kind of manager/leader you would want to be and the experience that you would most wish for your team to have of you, how you will gain their trust and be able to work together to achieve your vision and that of your company while empowering your team to grow, develop and become the best that they can be.
It is a very exciting position to be in and one that has huge potential, but there will be many new challenges to deal with that you have not experienced in your previous roles.
Listed below are some key themes that you will be called upon to deal with and also skills that are essential to add to your management tool kit:
- Conflict resolution
- Managing challenging conversations / the art of giving feedback
- Team development
- Managing self
- Delegation
- Coaching your team
- Boundaries of behaviours
- Selling the company vision
- Being a leader versus being a manager
Together we will help you become not just a good manager, but, a great leader.
It is by no means an exhaustive list, but each of the above will certainly challenge you at some point in your management journey and are worthy of thought and planning.
There are a number of coaching models that are in use in the world of executive coaching.
Ultimately, they are all designed to help you to define your goals and to be able to develop an effective plan to achieve them.
We will use the TGROW model which is one of the most widely used frameworks to your coaching conversation in additional to various techniques and tools to enhance your experience and get the most from your sessions.
The benefits I experienced were more than I had imagined before the sessions began. The process really opened my thinking and challenged some of my beliefs and behaviours I hadn't been aware of.
It was so helpful to get new perspectives especially around some of my previous beliefs and attitudes and a revelation that these could be changed for the better.
I asked to be challenged and it was greatly suprising what came out when I was. It definitely built self-awareness and opened me up to see situations in a new light.
I am goal orientated at work so it was a positive for me to be held to account on the agreed goals - a real positive.
