INDIVIDUAL PROGRAMMES
 
EXECUTIVE COACHING
 
Executive coaching is geared towards creating forward momentum and achieving results. London Coaching Associates will commit to implement coaching effectively so that you increase business performance and ultimately improve your bottom line.

The benefits for individuals within your organisation include:

  • Managing stress, change, conflict or crisis
  • Making quicker and more effective decisions
  • Improved leadership skills
  • Preparation for role/career changes and joining the board
  • Enhancing personal impact and performance
  • Setting and achieving challenging goals (both personal and professional)

The benefits for your organisation include:

  • Greater commitment from directors and senior managers
  • Retention of key people who feel valued
  • A more creative outlook in business planning
  • Creating a vision and path of action for the organisation
  • Improved management of other staff
Finding the time and opportunity to step back and look at the strategic bigger picture can be difficult at the best of times. The very people in any organisation who are expected to do the "blue sky" thinking often have few opportunities. They might also suffer from a lack of sounding boards to reflect their thoughts and ideas in a confidential, non-political yet inspiring arena. Even when executives can find the time to make strategising and planning for the future a priority, it can be difficult to know how to approach this, notwithstanding that their high level of input and commitment to the organisation.

Executive coaching can make a real difference to the way you work and have a significant impact on what you accomplish. It works particularly well with people in senior, challenging roles or when any individual wants or needs to address their own professional development. Working with an Executive Coach brings goals and aspirations into sharp focus and can fast-track an individual's progress towards realising their full potential.

Recognising that executives typically have tight schedules, our executive coaching aims to be flexible and responsive to the unique situations and demands of each client. We can attend conduct coaching sessions either face-to-face at your office, on the telephone or even walking outside - "professional coaching on-the-trot". Our consultants will discuss your preferences and particular requirements with you at your initial consultation.

WORK LIFE BALANCE COACHING

Do you feel that work is consuming your life? Do you feel as if there aren't enough hours in a day, minutes in an hour or seconds in a minute? Would you like to have more leisure time to pursue hobbies and pastimes that have been pushed aside? Would you like acceptance and a sense of purpose regarding the long hours you're working? Could you be getting more out of your career?

Whatever your particular challenge is, working through our Work-Life Balance Programme one-on-one or addressing these issues in bespoke coaching sessions, gives you the opportunity to explore your own balance, in the context of your career role as well as taking the responsibility to manage and maintain your work-life balance.

Coaching will assist you in identifying the processes and steps necessary to achieve this – it will also provide you with some invaluable tools to put into effect in your life when faced with challenges that threaten your balance.

Working with London Coaching Associates will help you achieve that balance through greater control of your working life, which in turn will improve your self-confidence and esteem, increase your jon satisfaction and result in better relationships with others, both in and out of the workplace.

CORPORATE PROGRAMMES

PEOPLE ENGAGEMENT AND CHANGE MANAGEMENT PROGRAMMES

London Coaching Associates have developed a coaching methodology called Ask-Think-Do™which presents a fresh approach to people managment that will lead to increased staff job satisfaction and engagement levels. The method is tailored specifically for companies that want to implement a coaching culture.
 
Job satisfaction is defined as an employee's perception of the value the organisation places on them and their own view of the level of positive experience they are having in the workplace. It is measured by indicators such as how valued they feel, the level of praise and recognition they receive, whether their ideas and opinions are listened to and acted upon.
 
Evidence shows a direct link between staff satisfaction and engagement levels and bottom line profits. Companies achieve these results by adopting a more consultative and positive management style. These are key principles of a good coaching environment.
 
Employee engagement can be defined as an employee's involvement and commitment to the success of the company. Measures include the employee's propensity to speak positively about the organisation they work for, their inclination to stay in or leave the company and by their motivation to achieve greater performance.
 
Ask-Think-Do™ is a simple, but powerful, set of principles and change techniques for staff, managers and leaders to use in everyday workplace situations. It combines real workplace experience, coaching processes and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) change techniques.

London Coaching Associates have also developed an implementation and benefits measurement methodology, called Pass-it-Forward™ that encourages and rewards participation and builds a coaching culture in the organisation.

Pass-it-Forward™ builds the required competency organically at low cost to the organisation. It includes a mechanism to verify coaching is happening and that benefits are being achieved. It can be linked to existing performance management processes. You can discuss your organisation's aims and goals with your consultation at your initial consultation.
 

 

 

 STAFF WORK LIFE BALANCE PROGRAMME

The Work-Life Balance Programme delivered by London Coaching Associates helps employers and employees address issues that arise from a lack of balance between personal and professional lives. The programme can be delivered by way of a one-day workshop, a half day workshop (for managers and senior staff) or through one-to-one sessions.

Employer benefits include:
  • Increased staff retention
  • Higher levels of staff motivation and commitment
  • Enhanced performance
  • Positive effects on productivity, recruitment and absenteeism
  • Demonstration of corporate social responsiblity
Employee benefits include:
  • Increased job satisfaction
  • Improved self-esteem, confidence, commitment and concentration
  • Great control of their working lives
  • Better work and life relationships

Within the workplace, research has shown that there is an increased awareness of the impact of stress, absenteeism and underperformance on an organisation, and often these issues are a result of conflicting demands on our time.

The answer is not necessarily part-time work or flexi-time. It is about raising an individual's own awareness of the balance that they need and providing them with positive steps to achieve it, through work-life balance initiatives. An enhanced work-life balance can improve an employee's personal performance and happiness, while helping employers improve productivity and maintain morale and motivation.

Employees are given the opportunity to explore their own balance in the context of their job roles, giving them the responsibility to manage and maintain their work-life balance. The programme helps employees and organisations identify the processes and steps needed to attain this.

Consider whether you are you getting the most from your employees? Are your employees getting the most from their jobs? Would you like more focused, more motivated and more productive employees? Would you like a lower staff turnover and absentee rate? You can discuss what you would like to achieve from the programme at your initial consultation.
