The Approach
Essentially, deeper level conversational engagement is used in facilitating positive & progressive shift, that occurs largely, with new insights, self-directed clarity & directional focus. It is done with active listening, thoughtful probing & concrete guidance in simulated ‘What-if’ situations. Individual leader feels inspired for change by seeing choices and options in adopting newer ways with-in psychological safe environment with the coach. Being a business & executive leadership coaching, context and stakeholders’ centricity stays as paramount in scripting a roadmap of change.
‘Must do’ aspects in a coaching journey followed by Dr Alok for all his C-Suite executive leaders:
Create a FEEL of compelling purpose
Personalising the learning journey. “What do you want & why do you want that?”. This builds self-ownership.
Anchor AS-IS & TO-BE status
Coaching is not in vacuum but in a context. Descriptors of To-Be are vital (a new-me). Identifying right ‘Dominos’ (key levers that resonate) to get there.
Make the SUCCESS measure
More stakeholders centric (Being business coaching & not life coaching). Goals are aligned with organisational imperatives & expectations).
Ensure NEW actions with EXERCISES
Intent turns into impact only by experiencing obstacles & workarounds. Focus is key. Hitting the tree at the same point will turn the tree into timber.
Carry out CHECK-Ins to validate
Small progress (green shoots) are vital. Validation with verbal 180 (Superior & peers) is often found effective.
Encourage key sponsor to ENHANCE transitions
Through NLO (natural learning opportunities) to keep the inertia. This ensures change stays not just in coach’s presence but also in his absence.
