First, contact me at lg@infinite-impact.com or call me at 206.669.6608. Our initial dialogue will help us determine if we are a good fit.
From that conversation, I will generate a customized plan with program specifics, including a recommended approach, number of sessions, process, and cost.
We then formalize the agreement. Typical executive and leadership development engagements last between 4 and 8 months.
Coaching starts with a Discovery Session based on an intake form that guides you through a series of reflective questions. If we’re doing a 360 (see above) or other assessment, we will layer it into our Discovery process.
Discovery lays the foundation of an awesome partnership. We accomplish three goals. 1) crystallize an action plan with specific “what” goals and metrics; 2) explicitly design the “how” of our coaching alliance, including all-important mutual expectation setting, 3) start coaching! You get immediately usable tools that I will want you to practice before we meet again.
After Discovery, we begin “ongoing coaching,” where we action your plan. We meet for 60 or 90 minutes every 2-3 weeks, so that we maintain momentum while giving you a chance to practice what you are learning. Sessions are in-person (at your office or mine) or virtual (Microsoft Team, Zoom, BlueJeans, or a video-teleconferencing platform of your choice) if needed.
We continually assess the effectiveness of our partnership, tweaking as we go.
We conclude our engagement with a specific completion session designed to capture, assess, and celebrate your progress against the goals we set; evaluate our experience; look at what’s next for you—and get you on your way. If we started with a 360, we might re-field it now or in a few months to assess your progress.
