How to Coach Yourself and Others Popular Models for Coaching | страница 273

Executives have strong challenges to meet. To develop
themselves, they have to get a clear awareness of their values,
strengths and weaknesses, as well as life goals. Without this
vision, the efficiency of the coaching process is compromised. It
will act like a placebo and will not last long.
This, however, is not sufficient. Executives also need to
understand the values and aims of the organisation. They must
be sure they suit them. This will allow them to be in a position to
understand the requirements, and even to challenge them to
excel.
Appropriating the reality of the organisation will empower
executives. Then, they will be able to move forward in the
coaching process and reach a “shared” goal. The definition of the
steps to reach the goal will be facilitated and even more
efficient.
Thanks to a better awareness of their strengths, executives will
have the opportunity to explore other additional personal
developments which may lead them to surpass their goals.
