LeaderSmart's coaching format provides an effective process for helping leaders to overcome a gap in knowledge, skill or attitude.  Personalized to each leader's specific needs, each coaching arrangement mandates that coach and candidate focus on achievement, honesty, and accountability throughout the coaching process.  This developmental approach helps to bring coaching candidates into greater alignment with the organization which, subsequently increasing organizational effectiveness.

Furthermore, leadership coaching assists in the creation of self- and group-awareness that are foundational to leadership development.  To this end, the coaching process includes successful implementation of strategic competency mapping, effective 360 performance feedback, relevant psychometric testing, and development of benchmarked leadership competencies. 

Today’s frenetic pace of organizational change requires that leaders know who they are and how they can achieve strategic results.  Foundational to these realizations is the practical understanding of one's individual strengths, weaknesses and personality traits.  We use an established process to help leaders realize their strengths and increase their confidence, consequently increasing their effectiveness and productivity. 

After developing and mapping leadership competencies specific to the client organization, we utilize a variety of multi-rater and psychometric assessment tools to identify gaps between actual and required performance.  We then work with leaders to overcome these gaps through planned developmental activities which build self-awareness and confidence as part of the process.
