Coaching Solutions for Leaders

It starts at the top.  Most of us can reflect on a past leader that brought out everyone's best.  A strong leader inspires up and down the ranks, empowers and includes the whole team, and advances the organization's agenda.  A forward leaning leader sets a positive and optimistic tone within the culture that creates hope, purpose and engagement in those they lead.  Scott Howard Coaching has coaching solutions for organizations and individual clients.  

Process

Leaders are diverse and often respond to information and opportunity in their own unique way.  Using a standard (or cookie-cutter) approach with a client with unique needs produces a standard result.  Therefore, my coaching process is tailored to not only meet your needs but exceed them.  Some of the traits of my coaching include:
  • I'm direct and quick to offer insight
  • My questions tend to expand and deepen your understanding of a problem set
  • My approach is strategic and calculated - designed to help you look through all possibilities

Consultation + Assess + Design = Execute  


​
​Corporate Contract

There comes a time when an organization must take action.
A struggling leader can have a profoundly negative impact on an organization.  Often leading to high turnover, diminished loyalty, disengagement, and ultimately reducing the organization's potential and profits.  Conversely, many organizations are seizing the opportunity to maximize the performance of high potential employees.  Coaching can address issues such as:
  • Performance enhancement 
  • Organizational confidence
  • Communication gaps
  • Disengagement

Leadership coaching is an investment that brings out one's full potential.  This one-on-one relationship provides you with increased clarity and perspective that few leaders leverage. Results can be powerful - leading to enhanced personal performance, increased team engagement, more confidence and better communication.

Who can benefit from a leadership coach? 
  • Executives moving into increased responsibility
  • Leaders wanting to improve their image 
  • ​A leader that wants a sounding board
  • A leader at risk 

Private Hire

Its lonely at the top.  While there are numerous rewards and perks to being a chief executive or president of an organization there disadvantages too.  Isolation, lack of a sounding board, no think tank, and often making critical decisions with limited perspective.  Advantages to having a coach include:
  • Confidential communications
  • Enhancing leadership
  • Uncovering blind spots
  • Inviting outside perspective

A privately hired coach works for YOU and only you set the agenda of what the coaching will explore.  Imagine the ability to discus anything, explore any idea in a confidential space.
My coaching style is client-centric meaning you set the agenda while I design with you a course of action to help you overcome obstacles and achieve your objectives.  

Along the way, I will not hesitate to challenge your assumptions, expand your clarity, and leverage my intuition, even when its uncomfortable. 

My coaching and client communications are completely confidential. 
​Testimonials*
You have helped me improve immensely over the last few years. I have doubled my income, I am proactive about budgeting with my wife (we meet every morning after our workout), and we are starting to significantly turn our finances around. I have a growing stream of private students.  Thank you for the great help ... when I first called you, I was in a mess, psychologically and emotionally, relative to money. I'm not now. Thanks for your guidance.

Scott and I worked together when I was transitioning into a new career. I had serious misgivings about my ability to take on additional responsibilities and was even worried about how I would come across in an interview. Scott worked with me on overcoming my doubts and crafting my message. He helped me see new ways of looking at my experience and measuring the value I could bring to an employer.
