Purchase options and add-ons
Having better leaders within an organization brings about undeniable benefits: improved work climate, team engagement, customer focus, employee productivity, workforce retention, etc. And coaching as a means to develop leaders from all levels is also widely accepted. These two facts are undisputed.
But does coaching leaders systematically result in improving their leadership competence? Can coaching for leadership development be used in a more efficient fashion? If so, how?
These are questions tackled by Leadership Velocity. In this book, Patrick Doyon introduces a number of concepts, best practices and tools that, when understood and applied, make coaching for leadership development more efficient. Some of the ideas and topics specifically addressed in this book include:
- A review of the main drivers and constraints related to leadership development;
- A general leadership development framework;
- A 3-phase leadership coaching approach along with an overview of the qualities that leadership coaches should have;
- Seven leadership coaching best practices;
- An 8-step leadership behavior change process;
- Eleven leadership coaching tools;
- Fourteen important leadership competencies and fifteen attributes of an effective team.
If you’re a coach and are concerned with the efficient improvement of your clients’ leadership skills – or if you’re a manager or an HR professional and you believe that coaching might be a useful approach to accelerate the development of your leaders, then Leadership Velocity was written with you in mind.
