Fresh Leadership - A Strategic Consultancy

Executive Coaching

Fresh Leadership Executive Coaching provides an individualized and customized service for you. Because the coaching and learning that occur are uniquely tailored to the individual, the process can differ for each executive and manager. The coach and client work together to design a unique coaching process that will create the desired positive outcome.

Fresh Leadership Executive Coaching understands that the foundation to creating the best coaching relationship includes:

• Intuitive listening
• Coachable moments
• Constructive feedback
• Thought-provoking questions
• Identifying solutions and options
• Creating successful action plans
• Identifying obstacles that might limit the plan's success
• Implementation of the plan
• Support through follow-up

The coaching process also involves providing a "safe place" for a leader to look in the mirror at some of the toughest things about his or her leadership that need to be addressed and make the courageous decision to change for the better. We also believe in coaching the "whole person" in helping the leader to balance both work and life effectively.

At Fresh Leadership Executive Coaching, services are typically provided in person and effectively via telephone and video as well.

Your results will depend on your commitment, perspective, and circumstances, but most clients report improved performance within four to six weeks. To make long-term, sustainable, positive changes in behavior, it's important for the client to make a serious investment and commitment in his/her own professional development. Coaching relationships often continue for six to nine months due to the time required for changes to take hold within the client.

The relationship between coach and client is highly collaborative. Therefore, it's critical to choose a coach who is right for you. Naturally, finding the right coach requires some homework and common sense.

In selecting a coach The Hudson Institute of Santa Barbara, a premier coaching school, recommends that you ask yourself the following questions:

• What is this coach's process and approach to coaching?
• Do I feel comfortable with this individual?
• How well do the training and experience of this coach apply to my needs and background?

What Others Say About our Executive Coaching:

As a result of our executive coaching relationship, I have:

• Much clearer life and work goals;
• Deeper knowledge of my strengths and of the ways to apply those strengths;
• Greater clarity of the things I need to thrive as a person, husband, father, and leader;
• A set of very specific 90-day goals, most of which I have already accomplished but would not have accomplished without your help in identifying those goals and taking action to achieve them.
• I have lost an inch from my waistline, I've started exercising more frequently, I've bought a piano to nurture my love of music, I've clarified leadership roles among my team at work, and I've taken risks in my personal and professional life that I would not have otherwise taken.

Craig has been a great coach for me. His understanding and insights to business and relationships has been a gift to me from God. He is able to comprehend the issues and the problems very easily and help me walk through the processes so I am able to make better and clearer decisions for my company and myself. I highly recommend Craig to any entrepreneur or top management person, who has a desire to improve themselves by having
someone else coach them.

I was faced with a very critical decision regarding my life. I could help our community by running for re-election to the Senate or give up that position and seeking some other path. By working with Craig, and going through the life planning and coaching principles, the alternatives before me were clear. I needed to pursue the tug to help more people from a different position. Craig helped my wife and me to plan for a more balanced life as we forge ahead.
