While many C- level executives formerly relied on functional know-how and technical skills to climb the lower rungs of the corporate ladder, most have cultivated more visionary perspectives needed to make sound upper management decisions

While the above is undoubtedly true it does tend to beg the question – ‘how do I develop those visionary perspectives and then deliver them with clarity and impact to the board, my investors and analysts and my staff?’ The imbalance between the time these individuals have spent acquiring their high level of technical and operational brilliance and the time they have spent receiving the necessary coaching support to deliver their key messages effectively is often enormous. But not insurmountable.

Jim Collins in ‘Good to Great’ emphasises the importance of getting the ‘right people on the bus’. In order to do that, the business leader, whether Chief executive or anyone operating at board or key decision making level, has to be able to communicate their vision and strategy with power and clarity.

This is where corporate and C suite coaching can be so vital. I have delivered and continue to deliver high level corporate coaching packages to senior executives in both the public and private sector in industries as diverse as mechanical and electronic engineering, retail and private banking, investment and restructuring, the hospitality and luxury goods sector and advertising.

In all cases the corporate and C suite coaching I offer addresses any gaps as described above and equips individuals and teams to communicate with dynamism, clarity and effectiveness.
