Commercial, pragmatic and highly focused executive coaching

 

""I worked with Geraldine for a period of 2 years, my growth as an individual was immense. I grew a true understanding of what made me what I am and was able to apply my strengths to achieve increased business success. My understanding of relationships with others was heightened to the degree that I achieved many stretching personal goals in my organisation. Geraldine’s calm, but firm style of challenge left me in no doubt that I was accountable for my destiny and indeed gave me a greater focus of the control I had both on myself and in relation to the development of my team. Her open and frank questioning style quickly enabled us to build a relationship of trust that in turn led to me being totally honest with her and myself to a deeper degree than I had previously experienced. I regularly use skills and techniques that I gained during this period - and others have also adopted many of the practices I have shared.""

HOW WE WORK
Methodology
The basis of the coaching agenda is typically a 360 degree review of the individual client together with input from a senior manager to specify development needs. ECC coaches then work with the client over a period of 6-12 months to meet the development objectives. Whilst the primary objective is often business development through performance coaching, the personal development needs of the individual are always incorporated.
Our coaches create a confidential contract with the individual which forms the basis of the working relationship.
ECC's own 360° review tool has been developed over 15 years of coaching experience. It has been extensively tested and developed. It can provide composite reports across coachees and across organisations too. The tool has been honed through use across many different industries and organisations.
Psychometric Tools
ECC Coaches are qualified and experienced in using a very wide range of profiling tools and instruments. Many coaches are BPS qualified to BPS Level 1 and 2. Psychometric and evaluation tools used include:
MBTI Myers BriggsType Indicator level 1 & 2
16pf
OPQ
FIRO B
360 tools including; MRG’s Leadership Effectiveness Analysis (LEA)
Hay Group's Inventory of Leadership Styles (ILS)
Hay Group's Emotional Intelligence Inventory (EQI)
PILAT and Psymmetry feedback reports
Where we work
Predominantly the coaching is done face-to-face, from ECC’s offices in central London or at clients’ locations in London or throughout the UK. As ECC has many clients with global / international roles who travel extensively - coaching is also carried out by telephone as well as by video conferencing.
