VERBAL 360s & GROWTH PLANS

We have found that the best way to accelerate leadership development is through a combination of individualized, one-on-one coaching and insights gained from a confidential 360 process, called a Verbal 360 Review. Participants are guided through a series of reflective and change conversations, where they not only receive candid feedback from their peers but also reflect on the feedback and create a personal action plan for change.

The process begins with the identification of 8-10 people who will be contacted for a 20- minute phone interview, in partnership with the coach and the sponsoring organization. The conversations are entirely confidential and we recommend including participants from a variety of reporting relationships including peers, direct reports and leaders. The deliverable is a personalized individual growth plan.

EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE COACHING

Emotional intelligence is defined as โ€œa set of emotional and social skills that influence the way we perceive and express ourselves, develop and maintain social relationships, cope with challenges, and use emotional information in an effective and meaningful way.โ€ While emotional intelligence isnโ€™t the sole predictor of human performance and development potential, it is proven to be a key indicator in these areas. Emotional intelligence is also not a static factor. On the contrary, oneโ€™s emotional intelligence can change over time and can be developed in targeted areas. Using the EQ-i.2.0, we assist leaders in developing their emotional capacity to lead and motivate others.
