Are you ready to lead the change your organization needs?
An executive coach should keep you "walking forward".
There are way more people that want the results of change than are actually willing to change to get those results. Which are you? And what is the behavior of your organization in that context?
If the number of meetings you’ve had to talk about change exceeds the number of attempts you’ve made to drive change, you’ve got a problem. How many times have you tried to change? What did you learn from each of those attempts? What do you plan to do during your next attempt to ensure better results?
@ If your organization is struggling to drive incremental change, there are likely specific elements of the organizational behavior that are blocking progress. And there is a high probability that it starts with you.
In coaching leaders that are determined to make changes within their organization for the better, we find that leaders often have big ideas and stated objectives, but struggle with what to do next. One of our coaching clients, Amy Wetherill, a practice manager and speech-language pathologist, turned to Pachydermos, LLC for just this reason. Amy owns and operates the Pediatric Development Center and aims to build the best practice on the East Coast. However, after fully taking over the Center from her practice partner, Amy quickly came to the realization that in order to achieve her growth goals, improving how the practice was operating was needed. Amy started working with Robert Stoneking (Bob) after a trusted referral source recommended him.
In a short period, Amy has come to value Bob as a critical coach in guiding her. She notes, “Having a coach who remains emotionally detached from our challenges and has extensive experience in leading teams and organizations is invaluable. Bob's approach not only provides support during the more isolating moments of leadership but also offers a practical example of strategic planning and financial analysis that I can learn from and implement.”
Furthermore, coaching is significantly enhancing Amy’s leadership capabilities. She explains, “Collaborating with Bob provides me with a sounding board for my ideas and encourages self-reflection. Most importantly, Bob instills in me the confidence that my instincts are sound - he keeps me walking forward.”
Amy appreciates how her coaching sessions with Bob are instrumental in advancing her leadership and driving the desired changes within her practice and team, despite the daily challenges she faces.
Leading change is a significant endeavor, and having support in defining and executing that change can be crucial. If you find yourself in need of guidance to clarify and lead a transformation within your team, consider engaging a coach. A coach can provide valuable insights and a boost of confidence to navigate the process effectively. We are here to offer that support and would be delighted to assist you.
