Effective coaching

Effective coaching is a vital key to improve client performance in business. Executive coaching, therefore, focusses on effective leadership and enhance the company or organizational productivity. However, before any coaching process kicks off, the executive coach must demand clarification of the strategy and organizational needs from the clients to prospect the untapped potential, goals, and critical success factors. They also ask for clarification to know the need for training the client, area of specialization, coaching duration and the terms of payment. A clear description also enables the executive coach to strategize on the method, tools, number of face-to-face contact interaction and the time to relay the feedback during the process of coaching. However, the information provided by the client needs to be assertive, open and transparent. The learner should also inform the executive coach on what time they need help. The client should present the description strategy containing the organizational need before coaching process begins.

Besides, the clarification document must also include the hour policy, cancellation policy and renewal policy. The policy gives the executive coach a cover of service offered to the client and the assurance of payment. The organization is therefore entitled to pay the full amount for the service in case the termination of the contract is done without informing the coach 48 hours before the scheduled duration.

However, if the organization found the coaching useful after reviewing the progress of the client, the organization can renew the contract through the human resource manager. The renewal is, therefore, done within 15 days to the expiry of the scheduled period. However, executive coaching increases clients’ performance, self-awareness and effective leadership hence higher productivity of the organization.
