Leadership Coaching

What Is the Value of Leadership Coaching?

Businesses today need talented leaders who can unleash the untapped potential and discretionary performance of every member of the organization, something that can only be achieved through effective business coaching and coaching conversations.

Leaders who engage their team members through constructive coaching and feedback are able to build team-member commitment to the organization’s goals, invite team members to participate as partners in the business, help maintain the organization’s competitive advantage and truly transform the organization, and enhance business success in a way that is genuinely sustainable over the long term.

In order to achieve these superior performance results while helping the business evolve for the future, leaders must develop their abilities to successfully coach others through a targeted coaching program. CMOE has been at the forefront of providing businesses with coaching training programs, services, and resources for more than 35 years, and we have worked with leaders from all types of industries in organizations around the world.

What Are Our Customers Saying

After going through the Supervisor Development Series, I was able to identify some personal deficiencies in my approach to management, as well as some constructive ideas to better interact with coworkers, producing a higher level of performance. I would highly recommend CMOE’s Supervisor Development program to anyone who wants to develop their management skills and take teambuilding to the next level.

Kevin M.

Sales Director – Pest Control Services

I just wanted to send you a quick note to thank you for everything this weekend! It exceeded any expectation I had… by far. Every member of CMOE that we encountered was positive, encouraging, knowledgeable, and eager to help us in any way they could. The training was an eye-opening experience that will benefit us all for years to come!

Taryn K.

Accounting Manager – Global Audit, Tax, and Consulting Firm

The leadership team had an excellent time. I am still hearing VERY POSITIVE FEEDBACK from the entire company on the strategy simulation and the overall learnings. I don’t think I truly gave you all enough ‘props’ publicly when I took the mic but it really got people thinking and affirmed the things we are doing to create a high performance culture here.

Adrienne B

VP of HR – Global Investment Institution

I just wanted to thank you again for an absolutely phenomenal couple days of training. Trust me when I say I needed this course desperately, as I am far too operational and frankly in the weeds. This will help me be more strategic. I sincerely enjoyed my time with you and the group, and again cannot thank you enough for your time and energy.

Ryan C

District Manager – Transportation and Logistics

I want to thank you for your insightful presentation. I have attended other seminars that our company has provided over the years, and never before has one affected me as much as your Coaching Skills class. I feel that the skills of your presenter and the support materials are unmatched.

Andrew W

Team Leader – Multi-national Grocery Chain

I am thoroughly impressed by the Coaching TIPS2 program and the way you can coach different “types” of personalities and different professional levels. The practice scenarios helped me to discover where I can be a better coach.

Liu X

Sr. Talent & OD Director – Multi-national Telecommunications Company

The digital Supervisor Development program has been critical to our business as we’ve worked to fill our open leadership positions with our current workforce. After doing some analysis, I’ve found that those who complete the experience have a better transition to a leadership role, and on average they have an 18% lower turn-over over rate over the course of a year. This has been a life saver! Thanks.

Yvonne M.

SVP – Learning and Development – Aerospace Manufacturer

I wanted to reach out and let you know that I have received more positive feedback regarding the Team Alignment session. The group feels that this has helped us get to a healthy spot, air out some team issues, and rebuild those personal connections. It was just the reboot our team needed.

Dave G

COO – Fortune 500 – Facilities Management Provider

We have experienced a 16% increase in productivity for six straight years after implementing the Coaching Skills, Teamwork, and Facilitation Skills training programs from CMOE in alignment with their lean manufacturing principles.

Dave P

CEO – Hydraulics and Electronic Systems Manufacturer

How do I know that there has been a behavior change in the attendees? I’ve seen supervisors, who previously wouldn’t address difficult issues with employees, address these issues; end up with a plan for change; and obtain buy-in from the employees. They did this by using the skills and tools from CMOE’s workshop.

Cindy A. S.

Manager Employee Development – Insulation Materials Manufacturer

I wished I had this training when I began my management career 15 years ago.

Paola A

Sales Leader/Workshop Participant – Biotechnology Company

WOW! We changed some people’s lives this week. I’ve gone a lot of places and done a lot of things, but this outdoor team retreat was definitely one of the top things I’ve ever done. From a professional development standpoint, it stands alone at the top.

Frequently Asked Questions About Leadership Coaching

What is the difference between leadership coaching, feedback, courageous conversations, and mentoring?

Reputable leadership coaching service providers offer customized programs designed to align with the needs, goals, and objectives of the learning audience and organization. The result is a powerful coaching experience that doesn’t just improve performance, but ensures the program is impactful, relevant and creates value for the organization and its people.

Good leadership encompasses a dynamic set of skills and qualities that need to be refreshed on a regular basis. While some individuals may have innate leadership qualities, these skills must be honed and refined to meet an organization’s and industry’s ever-changing demands.

Leadership coaching services offer a structured and supportive environment for leaders to:

  • Identify and develop leadership strengths: Coaches can help individuals optimize their natural talents and potential growth areas.
  • Address leadership limitations and weaknesses: By providing targeted feedback and guidance, coaches can help individuals overcome challenges and improve their performance and contribution to the organization.

  • 54% say it elevates leadership bench strength and succession plans.

  • Addressing performance challenges: If a leader has a team member who struggles to meet expectations or faces specific performance issues, coaching can provide guidance and support to improve their results or outcomes.
  • Developing leadership skills: Coaching provides targeted training and development for those in the organization who want or need to enhance specific leadership skills (e.g., communication, delegation, decision-making).
  • Preparing for career advancement: Leaders who use a proven coaching process are able to identify a person’s career goals and the skills and competencies needed to advance to higher-level positions.
  • Navigating organizational change: During times of change management, coaching skills to help people navigate the challenges and opportunities and opportunities associated with organization change.
  • Building a high-performing team: Coaching helps leaders develop the skills, knowledge and talent needed to build and lead effective teams.
