Assignment: Executive Coaching Training Presentation
Many think of executive coaching as an Art. It requires a complex interplay of knowledge and social skills. Unlike mentors, Executive Coaches must be skilled in the area of personal development. They must provide structure, foundation, and support to help individuals begin to self-generate results. The skill of Executive Coaching, however, is not learned in a vacuum. Like other professions, Executive Coaches must be trained in the effective methods of carrying out their responsibilities.
Acting as a trainer for future Executive Coaches, develop a 3-4 hour presentation to use as your guide during training. Your presentation, developed using PowerPoint, should be based on research in the field of executive coaching. Your presentation should be a minimum of 20 slides. There is flexibility in terms of how you organize your presentation (and slides), but you must include the following required components:
• Characteristics of an effective Executive Coach
• Essential skills needed to foster the success of Executive Coaches
• Best practices of the executive coaching field
• Legal and ethical issues in executive coaching
• Tools and techniques commonly used in the executive coaching field
• Methods of fostering a mutual learning relationship between coach and trainee
• Cultural competencies and sensitivity
• Coaching through conflict
• Your personal list of recommended "Dos and Don'ts" of Executive Coaching
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
