When evaluating their needs for training & people development, most businesses send their key people to one or more days standard seminar- on site or off site. These trainees spend the time away from their work, collect a bunch of speakergeneric notes- and go back to their daily routines, doing what they have been doing. New skills, learnt at the seminar, are not immersed in their work habits, there is no cultural change, and the results remain more or less the same. In todays ever changing and competitive business environment, CEOs and senior executives, however, must look at new ways to foster continuous change in their teams work habits, and foster a cultural change and attitude to be nothing but the best. They must want to build elite teams. In sports, even after the last win, you must coach, and train your team before the next game. So, why in business one or two days coaching seminars would help your company reach the business playoffs !! In sports, if you want to make the playoffs, and win the championships, you must continue to assess and sharpen your skills, learn from the last games, prepare for each game, and work together as a team. Similarly, to achieve strategic growth goals your must built an elite team, foster a culture of operational excellence. Under ever increasing pressures to meet the growth and profit targets, your operational and sales managers may be supervising their teams, but perhaps not coaching them. Moreover, your employees may be intimidated to open up to their immediate supervisors and share their thoughts. CEOs and senior executives must ask themselves this question: WHO IS COACHING THEIR TEAM? Business coaching is an investment that they need to understand, how exactly would it benefit their business ? Be it establishing or improving relationships, improving sales and profits, or developing new markets/clients, a business coach can help build elite teams by continuously assessing and guiding to sharpen the required skills Just like a professional sports team, a business coach facilitates changes that are: * Dramatic * Sustained * Builds on experience(success and failures) * Helps foster a cultural change, not only at work but in life Business coaching is facilitating change or improvements by: > Not telling people what to do, but coaching to learn from what must be improved > Developing a plan and vision for success > Having clear ownership in actions plans and results > Holding the coachee accountable > Guiding Unlike consulting, business coaching makes positive changes much more likely to be permanent. It helps build teams that have the skills and want to win those(business) championships. |
