EXECUTIVE COACHING
Activate Potential executive coaching supports both new and seasoned executives who know that in order to respond effectively to increasingly complex situations and objectives they need to grow their leadership skills. In some cases we focus on changing specific behaviors that are causing unwanted results. In others the work is more developmental than corrective.
Optimistic and results-oriented, Activate Potential coaching is a powerful service to improve how you lead others to achieve shared, organizational goals.
Participant Focus and Results
AP executive coaching is results-oriented. Work at this level focuses on:
- enhancing your understanding of what others need from you and how it differs from what they are getting,
- adding new skills to meet those needs,
- enhancing already effective leader behaviors and,
- eliminating ineffective behaviors,
- letting those you lead evaluate your progress and success (leadership effectiveness can only be measured and determined by the people being led)
—all for one purpose: to achieve organizational results.

At some point in a leader's career, it becomes apparent, either because they came to the awareness on their own or someone told them, that what got them to where they are will not get them where they want to go. Some crucial leader behaviors must change. When they are highly committed to making the necessary improvements, they become Activate Potential clients. |

Meetings are held in a combined in-person and conference call format, depending on location and schedule demands.
Our results-oriented framework includes:
- Information obtained directly from the people you lead and other important stakeholders via both interviews and direct observation,
- DISC-based personality assessments
- Leadership style assessments
- Exploring insights from best practices and academic research,
- Developing new knowledge about leadership generally, and a deep understanding of the new behaviors others are asking of you,
- Deliberate practice. Behavior change is not merely an intellectual event—adult learning takes time and continued practice,
- Creating a clear definition of success so stakeholder needs are not only identified and met. Your changes have to be obvious to them. They must recognize that you have changed.
