Aligning Purpose, Passion and Performance through Coaching
EXECUTIVE COACHING
Executives, Nonprofit Directors, Small Business Owners and Independent Professionals:
You are at the helm with a boatload of responsibilities. You are steering the organization into its signature era. The demands of stakeholders grab your attention and often conflict. There are internal systems to improve and pressures from the market to navigate. You must respond quickly and effectively to surprises. How do you keep your focus? How do you achieve your goals? How do you balance it all, especially if you are a first timer in the role? How do your recover a life outside of work?
You're not alone. Let's face it. The job of running a complex business can be daunting even for an experienced leader. In a recent survey 75% of nonprofit executives indicated they plan to leave their jobs in the next five years. The financial and emotional costs of executive turnover are significant to the individual and the organization. But it doesn't need to be that way.
You will succeed in your job by doing these things:
Gain control over your agenda for yourself and the organization
Meet or exceed your goals
Enhance your relationships with stakeholders and maintain their support
Balance the equation between your work life and your personal life.
We coach CEOs and senior managers to gain the knowledge and skills they need to lead effectively.
Depending on your situation we'll focus on one or more of five skills that are critical for leaders of nonprofits:
* managing yourself for peak performance * setting the direction for your organization * aligning your stakeholders * working effectively with your board and * raising funds.
Many of these skills apply to small business owners and independent professionals as well.
