Executive Coaching

The desire to improve executive presence and harness cooperative team productivity, along with the ability to connect with and influence important colleagues, are top of mind for KC&A clients. The good news is that improvement can happen in a short period of time working with a skilled and dedicated executive coach, and KC&A is here to help experienced leaders and managers of all levels succeed.

Successful leadership and management are fundamentally about relationships, influence and clear communication. Most leaders and managers struggle with the ability to effectively influence or connect with important colleagues and employees. Effective influence requires alignment of authenticity with adaptability. People want to work for people who are genuine, self-aware, open-minded, and evolving. These traits cannot be imitated. Adaptability requires understanding and appreciation of diverse styles and needs to inspire unrestrained engagement and aligned action.

Corporate coaching is the most efficient path to elevating executive presence and influential communication through focused leadership development. Our coaching services are designed for all types of leaders and management styles with a wide sphere of influence across internal and external stakeholders.

Through direct and indirect feedback, there is opportunity to improve:

  •   Relationship currency and trust
  •   Results through positive engagement of others
  •   Expectation clarity
  •   Constructive and activating feedback
  •   Communication out (1:1, team, cross-functional, broad audience)

Coaching goals and engagements include action plans designed to:

  •   Clarify vision or goals in any designated area of work and leadership
  •   Ensure authentic expression with respectful and adaptive leadership
  •   Craft communication and messaging to lead with clarity and inspiration

Team Building

Team members often lack awareness of their individual style and impact, and don’t understand how to best engage others with different styles. The results can lead to misunderstandings, self-protection, conflict avoidance, and reduced productivity. Helping team members understand and appreciate the diversity and value of all styles leads to reduced friction, improved collaboration, and increased team effectiveness.

Expertly facilitated corporate team building quickly generates a sense of belonging, connection, and safety, essential foundations for top-notch teams.This can be especially important for teams with new leadership and team members, and with reorganized teams. KC&A’s foundational and advanced team building programs provide engaging and practical experiences that strengthen relationships, interpersonal skills, and adaptive communication.

Manager Training

Managers are often promoted because they excel in their individual role or area of expertise, and lack the management skills required to manage people. The results can include underperformance, poor management ratings, employee relations issues, and fragmented teams. KC&A manager training programs emphasize self-awareness and impact, communication skills, employee engagement, and cross-team collaboration.

If your human resource partners are frequently responding to relational complaints rather than expanding organizational health and effectiveness, it may be time to explore manager training.
