Difficult Conversations : One 2 One Executive Coaching
“Better conversations, better decisions, better results”
Key skills that are often missing
Of course your top executives - the ones who ultimately make and communicate decisions that ultimately decide the company’s future success - are highly skilled in having vital yet often difficult conversations, whether that’s facilitating senior teams, managing conflict in the boardroom or giving difficult feedback.
Or are they?
In my experience, although the organisation expects its leaders to be talented in managing conflict and engaging in make-or-break crucial conversations, the reality is that they have either been too busy or have never received specific training around difficult conversations, collaborative thinking and executive team facilitation.
Alec Grimsley only coaches executives in the specific areas of managing conflict, difficult conversations and facilitation.
I offer one-to-one coaching and mentoring to create positive change in the following situations:
- A senior executive’s style is command and control, which is leading to poor decision making and low morale, and it’s essential that this executive has a shift in mindset and approach.
- A senior executive has never been comfortable with managing conflict and is failing to hold other senior people accountable for their performance and decisions.
- The managing director is not getting the best from his or her leadership team in key meetings and wants to develop better facilitation skills.
- An executive has a vital conversation coming up and wants specific mentoring on that particular conversation.
- Two executives have become so polarised with their views of each other that it’s affecting not just their working relationship but everyone else on the team. The use of an external mediator is essential before someone leaves or the situation deteriorates even further.
- An executive is so busy that he or she cannot attend workshops for any extended period of time, so one-to-one coaching is a viable alternative for learning these key skills.
