WHAT IS COACHING?

Coaching is a non-directive, results orientated, enabling development tool. Coaching creates a framework within which executives, working one-to-one with their coach, set and achieve goals in a confidential, appropriately challenging and supportive environment. Coaching focuses on the present and creating a desired future result.

What coaching is not:-

Mentoring – demonstrates and guides
Training – teaches
Consulting – recommends
Counselling – talks through (past)
Therapy - heals

Coaching is a journey of self-discovery that releases inner potential and facilitates stepping towards desired goals

BENEFITS OF COACHING

Coaching accelerates individual development and performance more than traditional training or seminars alone. Coaching inspires the willingness to invest in continual learning, growth, development and achievement to cope with a rapidly changing and evolving business environment.

Coaching has been used in organisations and by leaders, executives, professionals and teams to:

  • Pause and take valuable time out to focus, set and achieve goals faster than working alone
  • Enable busy managers to develop a healthy work/life balance
  • Enhance and improve self awareness that encourages self assessment, self directed learning and development
  • Change thinking, attitudes and behaviour that will positively impact on improved performance
  • Facilitate the delivery of actions following appraisals
  • Encourage investment in continuous professional development (CPD)

TYPES OF COACHING

Leadership Development Coaching

Leadership coaching is for senior executives who need to embrace and keep abreast of both the level of competition and the rate of change in the world of work. LMA Solutions supports leadership to raise self awareness, keep vision, mission and values of the organisation alive whilst dealing with the increasing demands and expectations.

An International Coach Federation (ICF) survey showed that ‘lonely’ and isolated senior managers welcome support and challenge from professional coaches who are outside the politics of the organisation and with whom they can discuss challenges which may be seen as unacceptable weaknesses within the organisation

Leadership coaching also facilitates succession planning and the proactive development of key talent in the organisation. Our coaching programme enables the formulation and sustenance of leadership skills and strategies.

Group Coaching

Group coaching is a cost-effective alternative to personal one-to-one executive coaching working with a group of executives who share the same or similar challenges. LMA Solutions group coaching programme allows executives to take time out to work on their own issues, problems, concerns and challenges whilst also providing a valuable opportunity to share best practices and ideas. The group benefit from the facilitation of the collective intelligence and combined wisdom of colleagues that will impact on and enhance their performance.  The result is accelerated change and a wealth of ideas that can integrate into organisational practice.

Could your executive group benefit from:

  • Group synergy
  • Sharing similar problems, issues and concerns
  • Learning from the collective intelligence
  • Disseminating executive/team best practices
  • Accelerating the transfer of knowledge that can impact on the bottom line
