Detailed Description
The E-Coach Leadership
Development Program is based on decades of successful work with hundreds
of executives and focuses on nine core competencies associated with
effective leadership. Each competency is covered in detail in a series
of fast-paced, lively, and informative sixty-minute sessions, and each
session provides opportunities to develop understanding and engage in
hands-on practice in order to build and support great leadership. To
ensure that all sessions focus on real-life client issues and
challenges, E-Coach conducts at least one or two in-depth discussions
with senior leaders prior to the start of the program and customizes
content to reflect the organization’s specific needs and desired
objectives.
This “live”
program can be supplemented with access to
e-coach,
a unique web-based coaching tool that offers additional
electronic support.
e-coach
compliments everything provided in the training by promoting
further self discovery and development and making support for
the ongoing coaching and development efforts of successful
leaders available – any time or any place they may want or need
it. |
What Clients
are Saying:
“The program
is perfect – a brilliant way to provide the coaching support we
need.”
“This
program has made a real difference.”
“All
training should be like this!”
“Wouldn’t
have time to do it any other way”.
“Feeling
much more confident as a leader.” |
Length/Timing of Program
The E-Coach Leadership Development Program consists of ten (10) sessions
that are generally held once a week for ten (10) weeks. However, the
program may be configured differently, if necessary. For example, it
can be presented in bi-monthly or monthly sessions of longer duration.
The first session is a start-up session that includes an overview of the
entire program and an introduction to the first competency. The
remaining nine (9) sessions include a review of the competency presented
in the previous session and the introduction of a new competency. All
sessions are approximately sixty minutes and involve teamwork,
discussion, sharing of successes and barriers to success, and
opportunities to develop solutions for problems that participants
identify.
The standard program also includes one individual coaching session for
each participant (by phone, Skype, or in person), a follow up evaluation of the
program as a whole, and suggestions for ongoing development for those
who have completed the program.
For organizations that license
e-coach to use as a supplement to the program, an e-mail follow-up message
goes out to each participant after each session to provide relevant
links to related
e-coach content and other ideas for appropriate development.
Leadership Program Content
|
Part One:
Leading Self |
|
This part of
the program looks at understanding the character traits and
emotional intelligence components essential to be a leader. The
three sessions focus on:
-
Accepting
accountability -- Taking and owning personal responsibility
for work and results.
-
Developing
self awareness and self regulation -- Developing the skills
of self discovery and self control that make a person able
to lead others and handle complex and challenging tasks in
ways that most people find appropriate and motivational.
-
Becoming a
continuous learner -- Knowing what and how to learn
individually and in a team---and how to keep learning and
growing to achieve personal excellence and competence.
|
|
Part Two:
Leading Others |
|
The focus of this part of the program is on understanding and
using the behaviors related to facilitating excellent
performance and the management of individuals and teams. The
three sessions are:
-
Creating an
achievement environment -- Sharpening skills required to
build a culture that appropriately rewards and supports
great performance and helps others improve and achieve.
-
Developing
people for optimal performance -- Learning skills to
uncover what people need to know to be successful and how to
build on strengths and developmental needs.
-
Leading
by example -- Providing the right modeling for others to
create the best individual and team performance.
|
|
Part Three:
Leading the Organization |
|
The third and last part of the program develops understanding
of the skills related to organizational change and performance.
It takes participants’ focus beyond the concerns of individual
management to the ones they expected to address as members of a
team of leaders who are responsible for creating great
performance. The three sessions are:
-
Being
visionary -- Knowing how to inspire others and gain their
commitment through powerful visioning skills.
-
Focusing on
change -- Supporting change and -- when it is necessary
--transformation of the current ways of doing work.
Challenging existing approaches and helping others to be
more innovative and think in creative and innovative ways.
-
Strategic and complex thinking -- Moving up to a broader way
of thinking about things and thinking critically to see
beyond their own “narrow” concerns to the bigger
organizational challenges that are the greater concern of
leadership.

Leadership Program Format
During each session, executive coaches and facilitators from E-Coach
Associates follow a two-step protocol specifically designed to ensure
that each competency is properly introduced and explained and that each
participant has ample opportunities to work with E-Coach staff and other
participants to completely understand each new competency. This
two-step process is built around:
|
Introducing a Competency |
|
-
Explaining what it is.
-
Providing some positive and negative examples.
-
Inviting participants to offer additional examples. [Team
Activity]
-
Summarizing Do’s and Don’ts.
-
Having participants “Take Stock” and set goals for “Moving
Forward.
|
|
Reviewing a Competency |
|
Having participants work in teams to quickly
confer and share observations and insights and then describe
them to the larger group:
-
How they increased “frequency” with the competency that was
being developed.
-
Tips for “moving up the scale” (things that could help
others to be successful, too).
-
Specific
examples of new ways they put the competency into practice
and demonstrated their ability to perform it effectively.
-
“Ah-ha” moments.
|
