Why Executive Coaching?

You want to enhance your performance
Leadership coaching can help you more accurately examine your areas for development, gain better perspectives about your abilities and how to better make use of them.

You want to learn about empowerment
Working with an executive coach can help you learn how to empower yourself and those on your team. This understanding is also more likely to increase team member’s engagement in opportunities to collaborate.

You would like an external perspective
Having an outside neutral perspective can be extremely powerful when looking to make meaningful and lasting changes.

You want to work on your confidence
Having a coach’s support while making meaningful changes, as well as acknowledging and celebrating success, can positively impact your confidence levels.

Job and life satisfaction
Coaching can help you to step back and clearly assess your life and in turn make more time for work/life balance.  This results in better performance, retention, and increased job satisfaction.

What will I learn from executive coaching?

There are many positives that we have observed over the years of providing executive coaching in Ireland, however some standout learnings that are common amongst our clients are:

Seeing and understanding yourself more clearly.

Research shows that accurate self-awareness in leaders is highly correlated with organizational effectiveness and employees prefer to follow leaders who are visibly self-aware.Working with Insightful Works through executive coaching will help you to build skills to see yourself more clearly: to question your assumptions about yourself, and understand your strengths and areas for development.

Seeing and understanding others more clearly.

In our executive coaching practice, we’ve often seen leaders run into problems because of their inaccurate assessments of those around them. For example, they may encounter retention challenges because they don’t recognize and support their capabilities. As experienced coaches, we will support you to develop the skills you learned for seeing and understanding yourself more clearly so that you can become more accurate in your assessment of others.

Learn new ways to respond

As leaders transition into new roles the capabilities and responses that may have served us well in previous roles may not best serve in a more senior capacity. For example, through executive coaching, you will be supported to ensure success through both the quality of your own work as well as your ability to inspire and direct others.

Build more effective relationships.

Many leaders have realized through executive coaching how they were limiting their effectiveness by neglecting their responsibility to build relationships. Executive coaching can help you recognize and manage your approach to relationship building by offering you tools to support you in understanding and creating strong working relationships with a wide variety of people.Working with a coach can be challenging but if you’re committed and open to the process you will find your coaching relationship can be a powerful catalyst to accelerating in your executive career.
