Executive Coaching Plans Personal and Corporate Coaching options help clients discretely remove barriers to personal, professional and business development. Expected coaching outcomes for the person being coached are increased clarity and focus (by paying attention to your intentions), personalized learning, expanded awareness and designing the life you want to live. The organization experiences increased employee productivity. Option 1: Corporate Coaching -- weekly executive and business coaching 1-hour sessions ($1,200/month-prepaid 6 month minimum). Corporate coaching for senior or C-suite executives is usually tied to the company's strategic initiatives, succession planning and retention strategies. The coach meets with each individual being coached on a weekly basis to determine the desired outcomes and put appropriate performance metrics in place. For some tips on picking the right coach, go to our Leadership Blog at www.CoachingTip.com Option 2: Personal Coaching--weekly 1/2 hour telephone sessions ($600/month-prepaid 3 month minimum). Why Personal Coaching? Personal coaching of executives, professionals and small business owners is available in 30-minute weekly sessions by telephone at half the cost of the corporate coaching option above. Option 3: Executive Onboarding Coaching --weekly 1/2 hour telephone sessions ($600/month-prepaid 3 month minimum). Personal onboarding coaching, available in 30-minute weekly sessions by telephone, is an investment in helping to ease newly hired or promoted executives into the workplace---through talking confidentially with a personal onboarding coach about personal fears, on-the-job challenges, and how best to smoothly integrate into the new corporate culture by building trust with direct reports, peers, customers, suppliers and other stakeholders.

Custom Search Terms of Service When being paid directly by the corporation, is important to define upfront the program objectives, who is the person to be coached and what results are expected. For example, is the corporation's motivation in having executives coached based on increasing profitability or employee retention, or both. The person being coached might be interested in personal & career development, balancing work/life issues and improving his/her opportunities. These corporate and personal needs and goals can sometimes be in direct conflict. It is therefore highly recommended that these issues be addressed by both the coach and corporate representative before beginning corporate coaching activities. A customized corporate coaching program, where both the person being coached and the organization's objectives are met, is usually developed based upon a combination of face-to-face meetings and private telephone coaching sessions.

We would be pleased to email you an executive summary of our coaching methodology. Coaching Relationship: In the coaching relationship, the person being coached sets the agenda and the Coach helps to clarify the vision, functioning more as a partner than as an expert. The person being coached has been made aware that the coaching relationship is in no way to be construed as psychotherapy, psychological counseling, or any type of therapy. In the event the person being coached feels the need for professional counseling or therapy, it is the responsibility of the client to seek a licensed professional. Call Procedure: The person being coached will call the Coach at the prearranged time and telephone number as scheduled. Please remember that rescheduling or cancellations of calls must be made 24 hours in advance. There will be no refund or credit for cancellations made less than 24 hours prior to a scheduled session. Payment Schedule: The Coach is paid at the beginning of the agreed to period of coaching services to be provided on behalf of the person being coached. The first coaching session will begin once the coaching plan has been agreed to by the Client and Coach. The client prepays for the coaching by personal/corporate check or online using PayPal. Termination: The Client may cancel at anytime. Cancellation must be in writing, by fax or by email message. Client is responsible for any unpaid outstanding coaching services performed up to the date of the cancellation notice. Confidentiality: The Coach recognizes that the person being coached may share future plans, business affairs, customer lists, financial information, job information, goals, personal information, and other private information. The Coach will not at any time, either directly or indirectly, voluntarily use any information for the Coach's own benefit, or disclose, or communicate this information to a third party, including the corporate sponsor. While the Coach will do everything in his power to keep communication confidential, the person being coached is aware that there are certain exceptions. For example, communication by email can potentially be intercepted or email archives can be subpoenaed by the government or judical authority or other parties in the event of a lawsuit. "Executive coaches are not for the meek. They’re for people who value unambiguous feedback. All coaches have one thing in common, it’s that they are ruthlessly results-oriented." FAST COMPANY Magazine "If ever stressed-out corporate America could use a little couch-time, it's now. Trust in big companies is at an all-time low. Baby Boomers have been burned; Gen Xers aren't expecting the corporation to take care of them. Under the circumstances, employees are much likelier to go outside and get independent advice to help them be better managers" Karen Cates, Assistant Professor of Organizational Behavior, Northwestern's Kellogg Graduate School of Management. "Between 25 percent and 40 percent of Fortune 500 companies use executive coaches" Recent survey by The Hay Group, an International Human Resources consultancy. How to pick the right coach?
