Provide a Coaching Service
Coaching Style
Nigel will use a range of coaching styles depending on the situation. However, his usual style is that of a collaborative partnership centred on achieving goals. This style is supportive, guiding and will challenge the individual concerned to maximise their potential and performance whilst ensuring a return on investment for the organisation.
In addition, he uses a range of diagnostic tools to ensure self reflection and will set challenging targets that are stretching whilst at the same time achievable for each individual.
As a coach he has achieved considerable success by identifying habitual behavioural patterns that may be blind to the coachee, through challenging hidden assumptions and beliefs and honest feedback.
He brings humour, compassion, sensitivity and commitment.
Executive Coaching Examples
Head of Social Welfare – Wimbledon Guild
The Head of Social Welfare required coaching in four areas:
- Develop more critical thinking when analysing information
- Learn how to give negative feedback to others in managing conflict
- Develop a wider and more future oriented perspective
- Be more assertive with others and more appreciative of herself
The above areas were addressed, and significant fundamental changes are being developed to ensure the future success of Wimbledon Guild as a result of the efforts of the Head of Social Welfare.
Head of Services – Ashfield District Council
Worked with a newly appointed Head of Service to build his confidence and effectiveness within the organisation. His previous background was not suited to this role and therefore there was a certain amount of risk taken by the organisation. Following the coaching intervention, it was soon recognised by the organisation that he was outperforming his peer group. Two years later the coachee was successful in securing a Deputy Chief Executives role.
Director – Coca Cola
My role was to effect change of a Director within Coca Cola by developing his personal impact and his self-awareness. The positive outcomes were noticeable by his fellow Board Directors and his team. This has proved valuable for the business by retaining a very innovative engineer at Board level.
Director of Corporate Services – Royal Bank of Scotland
Developed a Director of Corporate Services in managing more effectively his management team and helped to improve his strategic thinking which brought about a well thought out strategic plan for the Corporate Services division. This all helped to both increase performance and raise his profile within the business.
