HOW AND WHY DOES STAKEHOLDER CENTERED COACHING WORK?

The underlying premise of Stakeholder Centered Coaching is that the “experts” on what leaders can do to improve their behavior/performance are their stakeholders.

Stakeholder Centered Coaching is based on three fundamental principles:

  • Place the attention and focus on stakeholders as the “experts” in what a leader needs to do to improve.
  • Emphasize “FeedForward” rather than just feedback. FeedForward focuses on what leaders can do better in the future, rather than where they have failed in the past.
  • Change behavior and perception in parallel. Leaders need to tell stakeholders what they are working to improve and seek ongoing feedback and FeedForward from them so that colleagues can observe and recognize the improvement.

Involving stakeholders also allows us to measure the results of the coaching through periodic “mini-surveys” of stakeholders.

Because this process is so effective, we guarantee success. Clients pay in full only if positive, measurable change occurs.
