Management Coaching - Richardson Management Pty Ltd

Management Coaching

Individual or group management coaching is a highly effective way for executives to improve and develop their skills and capitalise on their strengths. Coaching programs are tailored, personalised and confidential and are typically conducted over 4-6 months to ensure sustained development and that busy managers are not away from the workplace for lengthy periods of time.

Our coaching programs kick off with a triangular (coach, participant and line manager) meeting to identify needs, determine "what success looks like" and agree on the way forward.

In the knowledge and information age, managers need to be leaders and coaches rather than just organisers and controllers. There is a need to balance leadership with management, creativity with control and people with output. The information age executive needs to "create the how" by facilitating people and processes via enlightened 360 degree leadership with a strong customer orientation.

Emotional intelligence (EI) is at the heart of leadership, and effective managers understand that it is our EI as well as our IQ that will ultimately determine how successful we are in business. Listening, empathy, rapport, giving constructive feedback to modify behavior, positive attitude, optimism, conflict resolution, understanding personality styles (our own and others) even temperament, team spirit, trust, influencing, etc. need to be part of the modern day (information age) managers skills repertoire.
