LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
Are you a Senior Leader, in Middle Management, or an Aspiring Leader seeking to enhance your leadership effectiveness, impact and influence to achieve professional and organisational success?
Executive Coaching can help you unleash your potential, create new possibilities and enhance your effectiveness, impact and influence.
LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT WITH THE BIRKMAN METHOD
We use the Birkman Method to partner leaders in their growth and development.
The Birkman Method is a proven leadership development tool to help new, established or aspiring leaders to:
- develop awareness of your strengths, interests, needs and stress behaviours
- develop awareness of how your perceptual filters can give rise to unconscious bias, conflicts and impede your effectiveness
- leverage on your strengths and interests and the strengths and interests of those you lead
- develop strategies for self-care to avoid potential stressors and manage stress that arise from unmet needs
- enhance awareness of your mindset or perspective, and calibrate whether your expectations of other people are realistic and how accurately you interpret social situations
- recognise how your leadership is perceived by stakeholders, and identify of areas for leadership growth to enhance your leadership impact and influence
The Birkman Method, when used in Team Workshops alongside Individual Executive Coaching provides a common language for conversations on working together more effectively. For example:
- Birkman's Team or Group Profiles provide insights on the interpersonal dynamics of how the Team is working together and facilitates useful conversations on how to leverage on diversity of different strengths and interests; recognise Needs and Stress Behaviours to support one another in meeting their respective Needs to bring out their best and to avoid Stress Behaviours
- Birkman Comparative data (Birkman Comparative Report) brings awareness of unconscious biases and blind spots arising from differences in how they perceive themselves and others. This also brings awareness of how conflicts may arise from differences in perceptions and allow for conversations on how to strengthen relationships, pre-empt and manage such conflicts.
