The coaching relationship creates a confidential, creative space for you to share business priorities and challenges and is a forum dedicated to building your capacity and confidence to meet them. Based on the focus areas you identify, this may involve: Sharing conceptual frameworks; employing psychology-based assessment tools; encouraging rigour in your thinking, visioning, planning and expectation setting; challenging you and enabling you to respond more resourcefully in tough situations.

Furthermore, by gaining greater clarity with respect to your strengths and potential blind spots, you will be better positioned to lead effectively and build resilience into your organisation’s management system. The coaching relationship provides an opportunity for you to learn and grow as you work through existing or emergent leadership dilemmas. Taking positive action to enhance your effectiveness also creates opportunities to translate your learning into results for the organisation.
