Services

At The Coaching Biz there are three services that we provide, coaching, consulting and training. These services are provided within the context of our six-step model and with the ultimate goal of creating organizational cultures that support the leadership's vision.

COACHING

We believe that powerful, supportive and effective cultures are created from the top down. When leaders are willing to be the living example of the kind of culture they want, then their passion and vision is infectious. Therefore we coach leaders, preferably each member of the leadership team. We also know that it takes time and dedication to create or change a culture so our minimum-length coaching contract is weekly coaching for one year.

Our coaching process is a simple yet powerful relationship between a leader and a coach. First and always the coach recognizes and highlights the leaders strengths, assets and resources. The process then focuses on what the leader wants. What are the problems, goals and desired organizational out-comes. Next the coach and the leader develop multiple ways to achieve the desired results. Then the coach assists the leader to prioritize, act and evaluate the effectiveness of the action taken. The coach can also be a part of the accountability and a monitoring system, always keeping the new changes and the big vision clearly in the awareness of the leader. Old habits have a powerful gravitational pull. Coaching provides the awareness and support for persistence and follow-through, while at the same time holding the space for creative brilliance.

CONSULTING

As consultants we will advise you on specific communication processes and protocols. We will also assist you to evaluate your current culture and design the culture that supports the leadership's vision. We work with the leadership team to identify the desired organizational outcomes and values, to operationally define the values, and to then optimize the culture to support those values. We do this through multiple visioning and planning meetings with the leadership team.

TRAINING

We teach our ten leadership protocols. We teach three to four of them at a time during daylong workshops. We also teach a management continuum and detailed communication skills for management and staff. The workshops can be done with up to fifty people depending on the space available. These workshops are a great venue to include the next level of management. We find that it is helpful to leaders when there is a common language and structure to communicate the desired cultural changes.

The focus, content, and structure of the workshops can be tailored to any organization or team. We specialize in training leaders to become highly skilled at creating environments and cultures that encourage employees to be effective, self-generating, creative, responsible, productive, and happy.
