This article outlines key aspects of executive coaching and why clients utilize coaching.
When confronted with challenges, we usually rely on test-and-tried responses. Which is not necessarily bad, as any test-and-tried procedure for sure is quick and often response-time matters.
But being alert pays only half the rent if your reaction is not up to the challenge.
High-quality coaching enhances your resilience and multiplies the options you can choose from when under pressure. Like how a highly respected doctor practices medicine, good executive coaches rely on experience.
Good coaching needs a well-researched map that guides you during the coaching process. Our advice is firmly rooted in evidence-based management. We apply management psychology as well as tools that have been developed by well-known players, such as the Center for Creative Leadership.

It is all about providing psychological safety while nonetheless posing tough questions.
What provokes sustainably new leadership activities is helping a client to reach out of his or her comfort zone to acquire refined and enriched practices.
