Case Study
From cagey to confident leadership
Problem

Following a piece of organisation design change that I co-led, three individuals achieved significant promotions. They all wanted leadership development to meet the challenge of their new roles and they were up for doing things differently.  They all had differing levels of experience and development needs – so a standard training course was not going to work.

What we did

I designed tailored development plans with each individual based on their needs and their leadership goals. Their one to one sessions involved a combination of development techniques, including training masterclasses, coaching and mentoring.

The development plan topics included:

  • Personal leadership style definition
  • Understanding motivations
  • Leading through change
  • Performance management and contracting
  • Feedback tools and techniques
  • Influencing skills
  • Communication skills and team facilitation
  • Managing conflict
Result

Despite commercially challenging times for the business, they are:

  • Working fewer hours by delegating more
  • More confident with their leadership style and who they are
  • Improving team performance – by being consistent in setting expectations and confident to feedback when they’re not being met
  • Getting the best out of their people by understanding different motivations and how they affect results

Successful in influencing their peers to get the job done!

Nicola will undoubtedly help you recognise your leadership style.

You'll always leave a session with hints, tips and an action plan so quickly the benefits of Nicola's coaching are in action.
