Executive coaching: How you can benefit from it!

As a manager, you face special challenges in your everyday life. Whether you're still young in business or have 30 years of experience, these demands are subject to constant change. Whereas in the past it was primarily a matter of earning respect by acting in an authoritarian manner, today's leadership is different. It's about appreciation, creating freedom and a productive working atmosphere, as well as promoting the further development of individual team members. At the same time, the further development of your own competencies is also important for you. This is exactly where executive coaching is at your side and supports you in strengthening and expanding your personal skills.

What competencies are important for good leadership?

The list of tasks that managers have to deal with on a day-to-day basis is long. On the one hand, goals have to be achieved and positive balances created; on the other hand, there is the major task of team promotion and team development. In order to successfully climb this mountain, various competencies and characteristics are important. Maybe some of them are already inherent in your nature, others can be actively developed and promoted through executive coaching.

  • Confident handling of critical situations
  • Empathy & Sensitivity
  • Authenticity & objectivity 
  • Promotion & motivation of employees
  • Solution-oriented communication
  • Flexibility & Agility
  • Delegate correctly
  • Resilience and patience

These are just some of the most important qualities that make good leaders. These leadership competencies are not automatically handed to you in a nicely packaged box when you rise to leadership. The good news is that if you actively work on your weaknesses and take part in professional leadership coaching, you can build on these skills permanently and continue to develop.
