EXECUTIVE
COACHING
MAIN
OBJECTIVE
To help the employee (client) improve his or her individual
management and leadership effectiveness through a program of self-awareness
and personal development planning and decision making.
What
does it involve? By establishing trust and credibility with the client,
and becoming the confidential sound board, I help the client to:
- Think
through the issues they face as a manager
- Assess
their strengths and weaknesses through psychometric tools and 360°
feedback
- Consider
implications of these findings for career and management effectiveness
- Make
decisions in their leadership development plan
- Stick
to their plan through periodic coaching and review
THE
MANAGEMENT EFFECTIVENESS AND DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
- 22
consulting hours spread over 6-9 months in 10 sessions plus
- 13
consulting hours to produce 360° feedback report
PROGRAM
FOR NON-MANAGERS
- Similar
to the MEADP but focused more on influencing skills rather than managing.
BASIC
PROGRAM
- For
people who want to engage in some dialogue on self-assessment and situational
contingencies but without the Feedback/360° Report.
-
Eight hours spread over 4-6 weeks in 4 sessions
WATCHING
THE PROCESS UNFOLD
-
Initial
meeting to establish expectations of the client, conduct a brief career
history, and distribute set of Personality Preference Instruments.

-
Consultant able to provide own assessment to client.
-
Discuss client's current job satisfaction and frustrations
-
Distribute the AFS Management Effectiveness Manual.
-
Introduce the AFS Management Effectiveness Model
- Examine both the 'mechanics of management' and the 'dynamics of management'
- Lead discussions on self-evaluation of the client's effectiveness in these concepts
- Conduct 360° feedback exercise (if applicable)
-
Action
Planning
- Career
options and planning the future begins
- Review
all previous findings and draw conclusions in order to assist client
in developing an action plan.
360° FEEDBACK REPORT
Perhaps
unique to AFS MEADP we collect data by interviewing six (or more) co-workers
to get a 360°
perspective for the client; data is compiled in a report
which shows distributions and mean scores. The client also completes this
questionnaire and can then compare his/her results against the co-worker feedback.
The results are interpreted with the client who then begins to draft a Development
Action Plan.
