Executive coaching is a confidential and highly personalised process,
where your coach will be a source of both support and challenge
throughout your developmental journey. At Kool Results, our goal is to work with you to determine the strategic direction of your
organisation and develop the leadership skills you will need to make it a success.
Our Leadership coaching programs span anywhere from 6 months to a year,
bi-weekly (2 hours per session) working with individuals to grow their
leadership capabilities.
Typically our focus will cover strategic
planning, performance management, gap analysis, process development,
organisational development, organisational behaviour, operations planning
and so on.
Why Your Organisation Should Invest in Coaching....
Coaching is increasingly being utilised because (Auerbach, 2005):
- Small businesses can result in isolated managers who welcome support and challenge from someone outside their immediate work environment – especially if coaching and leadership development is not available in-house.
- Attendance at whole-day, or multi-day leadership development courses can seem impossible in an already busy schedule – and involve significant travel expenses. Sessions with business coaches, often conducted over the telephone, can fit around other commitments.
- As organisations operate with a “lean” staff – a shortage of time and increased pressure to perform is always present – and coaching provides “just in time” assistance and individual learning and support.
- Coaching provides for an individual “thought partner” to help the executive or manager confidentially think through important decisions in an enhanced manner.
A 2008 study (Sherpa Coaching, 2008) found that over three years’ time, the use of coaching primarily for leadership development has increased from 43% to 50%.
Executive coaching is the tool that can accelerate performance. It will increase the performance of teams, give leaders the skills to create working environments that enhance performance. This can result in increased job satisfaction and fulfilment, and therefore, productivity and retention. Last, it can increase alignment between organisational, team and individual goals which are vital to achieving business results.
Our coaching programs will assist you & your leaders to:
-
Be aware of individual leadership strengths and areas for development, and have a personal plan for change
Learn how to respond effectively and constructively across a diverse range of situations
Take full ownership and responsibility for
behaviour, decisions and actions
Understand how to engage people and create a high performing team
Deal effectively with people issues when they arise, and before they turn into crises
The result will be an organisation where management and employees work together to identify and achieve excellence and manage change productively. Your workplace will experience:
-
Loyal & productive people;
-
Greater workforce satisfaction;
-
Stronger leadership presence;
-
Cleaner communications;
-
Increased team motivation;
-
Reduced staff turnover.

HR Coaching for Internal Staff Development
Many new or growing companies do not have a designated HR professional on staff. It is common for the office manager, accountant or junior HR administrator to become responsible for all human resources issues in small to mid-sized companies. As the company grows or changes, however, the HR function greatly increases in importance. We provide coaching to your staff and teach tools they need to manage the HR issues with confidence.
