Dr. Marshall Goldsmith is recognized as World’s Top Ranked Executive Coach, the #1 Leadership Thinker, the Top 5 Management Thinker (2015), author of best selling books, and one of the top 10 most-Influential Business Thinker in the world.
Dr. Marshall Goldsmith’s coaching process has been used by more than 150 of the Fortune 500’s top leaders to take their performance to the next level
According to a leadership derailment research, over 50% of highly successful professionals fail as leaders; that’s 150 million worldwide.
According to Marshall, the key reason is that :-
"These successful people, in their quest for achieving their goals, have no idea how their behaviour is coming across to people who matter – their bosses, colleagues, subordinates, vendors, share-holders & customers"
Marshall also states -
"Almost every Leader I meet is successful because of doing a lot of things right
Almost everyone I meet is also successful inspite of some behavior that defies common sense"
These behaviors become impediments for further growth & effectiveness. Importantly, it also starts impacting their teams.
If you want to become, or remain, a cutting-edge organization (80% of those who were in the Fortune 500 in the 1980’s are no longer in the Fortune 500 today), it is imperative to develop increasingly effective leaders throughout the organization. Building, and keeping, your leadership talent by helping your leaders reach their potential is the key to everything that will keep your position as a leading-edge company.
The Stakeholder Centered Coaching® process helps organizations build a culture where it’s leaders:
1) turn learning into practice; and,
2) achieve sustainable and documented improvement in their leadership that is both recognized & acknowledged by those who work with them
SCC measures and reports on leadership growth throughout the process
SCC ROI has been studied in two broad sweeping studies and demonstrated to have >95% success rate with more that 11,000 Leaders around the world.
Focus is on Leaders who cast long shadows (have maximum influence) therefore impact is maximized throughout organization.
The Leader being coached engages a broad range of stakeholders including bosses, coworkers, and employees in daily coaching: outcome is accelerated growth, heightened awareness, humility and EQ through immediate identification of leadership behaviours that are most impactful not only for the client but all stakeholders. The process inherently creates a culture of change and trust that did not exist.
SCC takes incredible courage, humility and discipline – it is a transparent and public process which involves sharing with stakeholder including subordinates those things that Leader is weak at and wants to improve upon and is asking their help in. NB: Coaching conversations are bound by confidentiality.
SCC intake assessment involves the coach meeting with each of the Leader’s stakeholders to truly understand the individual via structured behavioural interviews by professional coaches that we can then debrief in concert with tailored proprietary Global Executive 360 assessments with the client.
SCC Process focus on sustainability in behavioural shifts by repeating actions confirmed by stakeholders that form habits, these habits with in 6-9 months form new behaviours that are sustained and are reinforced by new perceptions acknowledged by stakeholders through mini survey feedback as well as on the job.
SCC is a highly transferable coaching process that the Leader learns how to deliver during the leadership growth journey – Leaders who get coached graduate as coaches.
