Coaching Process

360 Assessment and Executive Coaching

Our proven One Page Talent Management (OPTM) 360 assessment will help your leadership teams understand priority items that respondents feel need attention.

In an easy to complete format, respondents will choose from a “do more” or “do less” structure as they rate the requester.

After we have administered the assessment, one of our executive coaches will help define a strategy and action plan. We custom tailor each plan by company needs. Here is a sample of what the leadership plan may look like:

  1. Agree with the executive and project sponsors, if appropriate, on specific areas of concentration and courses of action
  2. Develop the executive’s coaching work-plan for the program duration
  3. Identify critical success factors and challenges, and define specific goals to be achieved
  4. Set-up and implement the coaching timeline for the selected duration, key action items, accountabilities, and deliverables
