Executive coaching is a type of coaching that is highly specialized. Executive coaches focus their efforts on identifying and meeting the special needs of top-level managers, senior professionals, organizational leaders, and entrepreneurs. At Proven Paradigm, executive coaching is always a customized program that focuses on the needs of the specific executive and the unique circumstances they are presently dealing with on a day-to-day basis in the organization. This type of coaching is particularly effective for executives that are striving to master the skills required for high-level management, focused on creating more effective top management teams and concerned about staying focused on critical issues and priorities.
The executive coach also serves another vital role that is often unavailable for senior executives and leaders, the role of the confidant who can be a “sounding board” outside of the organizational structure. A safe and structured executive coaching relationship ensures an environment that provides a safe way for executives and entrepreneurs to explore options, voice frustrations, and talk through best practices before engaging in specific courses of organizational action. One recent study on coaching in America estimates that 80% of C-Suite level executives currently have a coach.
