    The Coaching Leader’s Advantage™
    Coaching Approach to Leadership:For organizations that want to develop a leadership culture that is more collaborative, engages employees more fully, and is more effective at developing the future capability of employees. The proven Adler approach – which I’ve helped to develop – uses a blend of consulting, design, workshops, and coaching to support organizations in the following key areas:

  • Strategic positioning
    • Clarifying desired outcomes/measures for proposed leadership development initiative
    • Positioning the approach in the organization’s context – e.g., linking to performance management model, strategic objectives, leadership competencies, core values
  • Building leaders’ coaching capability
    • Assessing of current coaching practices
    • Training managers through innovative workshops in a comprehensive coaching approach and key coaching skills
    • Supporting managers in relating their coaching role to their other manager/leader roles
  • Implementation support
  • Providing follow up programs to ensure application (e.g., group tele-labs, individual coaching for senior leaders whose modeling is key to the success of the culture shift)
  • Custom-designed support tools

    • Training and certification of internal coaches to deliver the program is also available. The program can be customized to meet the needs of the organization and team.
