Trusted counsel to support your most difficult decisions and your most critical people.
Performance = Capability – Interference.
We help executives, managers, and high-potential leaders reduce interference by serving as a trusted confidant and objective third-party. Our approach is characterized by active listening, probing questions that address the wholeness of the person (head and heart), sharing observations, providing direct feedback, and moving the person forward towards action with accountability.
At times, leaders don’t get the support they so regularly give to others. This leads to poor decision-making that results from:
Leadership can be lonely. Sometimes leaders suffer from group-think among their direct reports which produces imperfect understanding, and disastrous decisions.
A negative internal dialogue and set of beliefs limits performance. Even when leaders have adequate support, crippling uncertainty can often supersede the best intentions and plans.
Pressing the pause button on day-to-day execution is counter-cultural nowadays. However, without placing adequate attention upon leadership development, high-potential talent starts to experience burnout and subsequently question their role in the organization.
Hitting the ground running is easier said than done. Sometimes leaders lack the necessary onboarding or support to define their new role… and execute quickly.
Our Bâton coaches operate with the belief that our clients possesses the necessary experience and knowledge to discover the best solutions for themselves. Therefore, our role is to help identify interference and maximize capabilities through focusing on the five necessary essentials of development:
Do leaders know what they need to develop and why? Clients gain insights with results from a variety of personal assessments (e.g., 360 Feedback, Hogan Assessments, The Predictive Index, etc…). Then, individualized development plans are developed and serve as the anchor for ensuing coaching sessions.
Are leaders willing to invest the time and energy it takes? Without authentic and intrinsic motivation, no level of coaching or skills-development will produce desired results.
Do leaders have the skills and knowledge required for success? Bâton coaches can assess and recommend tailored skills-development programs.
Do leaders take advantage of opportunities to use their skills where it matters? We help leaders prepare to make the most of their opportunities to perform and learn.
Do leaders feel accountable to use their capabilities to improve performance and results? Our coaches provide the independent accountability to keep leadership development at the top of the list of priorities.
Bâton coaches have worked with executives and leaders throughout the organization to deliver transformational results:
Working with a large publicly traded organization, our Bâton coaches successfully guided the board and C-Suite team to develop their leadership succession pipeline ensuring a smooth organizational transition.
As leaders move up the leadership pipeline, they must focus on transformational leadership more than transactional projects. Bâton coached large leadership teams across a Fortune 500 company to help them create the necessary personal and organizational innovation.
We believe that serving as a professional coach represents one of our highest honors and responsibilities. Engaging with leaders as they progress through significant personal transformations is our highest reward.
We work with leaders throughout the organization to prepare them for various responsibilities. Whether it is a CEO, or a leader’s first role managing others, we provide the customized approach to match the specific goals.
