Executive coaching is a process of informed dialogue designed to improve individual and organizational effectiveness. Effective coaching develops leadership skills and competencies by fostering insight, self-understanding, learning, and behavioral change.
The Nevins Consulting approach to executive coaching is not based on a generic process or formulaic model; rather, we facilitate each coaching engagement as a collaborative and dynamic learning and behavioral change experience. Conducted in this manner, executive coaching focuses on real leadership and management competencies in the context of the executive’s actual role and business challenges.
Executive coaching can be used to address situations such as:
- Developing high potential leaders as part of succession planning
- On-boarding new leaders (external hires or internal promotes)
- Developing new competencies in response to mergers, restructurings, or changes in strategy
- Leading, supporting, or adjusting to organizational or cultural alignments
- Helping executives raise their game (whether underperforming, meeting standards or excelling)
Our bullpen of seasoned coaches has worked with senior executives and more junior high-potential managers in a wide range of industries around the world.
Our coaches represent a diverse pool of individuals who share many common traits, typically including:
- Advanced educational degree(s)
- Senior-level positions within organizations and/or professional practices
- Diverse industry and functional experience
- Expertise deploying 360-degree feedback and psychometric instruments
We carefully match our coaches to each client engagement based on an assessment of the coaching needs. Our coaches partner with their clients to identify key issues and work through them to drive development that enhances both individual and organizational performance.
Additionally, we regularly work with organizations to help them design and deploy effective executive coaching strategies and programs to support their executive development objectives.
Nevins Consulting designed the intensive Certificate Program in Executive Coaching for the NYU School of Continuing and Professional Education.
