What is executive coaching?
Executive coaching is a professional development partnership where experienced coaches work one-on-one with senior leaders to enhance leadership effectiveness and decision-making skills. Unlike consulting or mentoring, coaching focuses on developing self-awareness and helping executives find their own solutions through structured conversations. Most engagements last 6-12 months, costing £3,000-£15,000, with measurable results typically visible within 3-6 months. Common challenges include leadership transitions, communication issues, team management, and strategic thinking development. The right coaching relationship can transform your effectiveness as a leader, providing objective support during career inflection points and helping you navigate complex challenges with greater confidence and clarity.
