The vast majority of companies worldwide offer some form of
coaching to their workforce as part of their Learning &
Development initiatives.
Coaching has
moved beyond Fortune 500 companies and executives to encompass
start-ups, entrepreneurs, small businesses, family businesses
and public organisations are adopting coaching as a means to
innovate, transform, develop and drive business
success.
Often this is in response to massive
and unprecedented change. We have moved from ‘fast moving
consumer goods’ to the fast moving global economy. The
way we work has, and is changing rapidly. The status of
IQ has been relegated to be the ‘ticket to the game’ but the
game is being won through emotional intelligence,
adaptability, collaboration, empowerment and teamwork in
pursuit of a vison and strategic objective.
Today, talent is the leading indicator of organisational
and financial success. Human resources have rather
belatedly been recognised as the true source of
competitive advantage as money has become simply a
commodity and technical superiority a transient
advantage. People, their decisions and their actions,
produce the numbers. Cognitive ability is your ticket to
the game, but emotional intelligence is your ticket to
excel.
Talent has become the differentiator between companies that
succeed and those that are left behind. The winners are led by
people who can reshape the organisation in response to change,
devise strategic approaches, manage risk, seize opportunities
and defend competitive advantage.
Coaching has
become a method of developing, deploying and engaging
leadership talent. As the business world has
become characterised by increasing turbulence and massive
changes, such changes have resulted in a recognised need for
coaching which can support, encourage and help individuals and
organisations to master changes and succeed in an increasingly
competitive and challenging world.
Furthermore
organisations have recognized that training and learning is
not sustained unless individualised follow-up is incorporated
into training programs. Turning learning into action often
faces organisational and environmental inertia which requires
skilled coaching to support new behaviors and prevent
slippage.
In response to the demand by business
that coaching show a return on investment, studies have
increasingly recognised that individuals and groups perform
better with coaching and that this performance translates into
business results.
