Executive Coaching:
Executive coaching is an experiential and individualized leader development process that builds a manager’s capability to achieve short- and
long-term organizational goals. It is conducted through one-on-one interactions, driven by data from multiple perspectives, and based on
mutual trust and respect. Recent studies have validated the power of the Executive Coaching process. Successful executive coaching links a
business focus with human processes by closely aligning the manager’s development with critical business needs. Since executive coaching
addresses specific performance or behavioral gaps, it gives high-performing busy managers an opportunity to reflect on feedback, focus on
developing goals, and have someone to hold them accountable for executing their goals.
At The Painted Sky, we undertake Executive Coaching assignments for our clients who have managerial authority and responsibility in an
organization. We work with clients across industries, to help them rise to the challenges at work, fulfill their true potential and achieve greater
success and satisfaction, through our successful Executive Coaching practice. Potential Coachees mostly include members of the CXO suite or
their direct reports.
Our approach, using the ICF “Eclectic” method, leverages research-based tools and techniques, which are tested and proven to bear
better results. It is a powerful and structured process through which the client is helped to identify and address self-limiting beliefs and skill gaps
that hinder progress towards goal achievement. This leads to change and transformation that a client aspires, which emanates from asking
right questions, rather than providing right answers.
Individuals who engage in a coaching relationship can expect to experience fresh perspectives on personal challenges and opportunities,
enhanced thinking and decision-making skills, enhanced interpersonal effectiveness, and increased confidence in carrying out their chosen
work and life roles.
