Executive Coaching is unique as a coaching speciality and niche in that it
targets a specific form of leadership-the visionary and managerial leaders
of business.  The people who operate at the executive levels in
organizations and corporations face very unique challenges-a politicalize
environment where it is often difficult to get accurate facts about what's
really happening.  Where it's difficult to find someone to talk through
one's own thoughts because everyone else in the organization have political
agendas.  It is into this arena that the Executive Coach enters.

 

What characterizes life in the C-Suite?  Stress, lots of it.  Demands from
those above and below.  Questions about meaningfulness.  Questions about
work-life balance.  Time-pressures.  Here the Executive Coach enters to make
a transformative difference.  To do that effectively, while an Executive
Coach doesn't have to have been an executive, he or she does need to know
the challenges in the C-suite and how to have a ruthlessly compassionate
conversation about the challenges there.

 

In this, the newest volume in the Meta-Coaching series, Executive Coaching
examines the challenges of executives in detail in eight chapters:
Psychological Well-Being, Direction, Feedback, Change, Leadership, Politics,
Culture, and Derailment.  These primary challenges of modern organization
are detailed by research as well as by the personal comments from Master
Coach, Graham Richardson, who pioneered the idea in Meta-Coaching of the art
of ruthless compassion.

The third section of the book presents Executive Coaching Conversations.
These supplement the first twelve kinds of Coaching Conversations for
individuals and groups (as detailed in Group and Team Coaching) and add six
more conversations: The Sounding Board Conversation, Outcome Conversation,
Feedback Conversation, Systems Conversations, Paradox Conversation, and the
Unleashing Potentials Conversation.  An entire chapter is devoted to each
kind of conversation supplemented by comments from Graham Richardson.
Additionally there is a chapter on Collaborative Leadership Conversation,
the Integration / Integrity Conversation, the Systems Conversation, and the
Paradoxical Conversation.

 

An Executive Coach challenges.  He or she does so from the perspective of a
compassion based in accurate empathy.  That's because an effective coach
knows how to listen-to deeply, actively, and powerfully listen.  That's not
easy.  Yet out of that high quality listening the effective coach knows how
to hold a fierce conversation to hold an executive responsible.  That's even
more difficult.  Yet as effective Meta-Coaches learn this, then as an
Executive Coach, he or she is then able to facilitate transformation in the
inner game, one conversation at a time.  The final chapter in Executive
Coaching speaks to the subject of launching an Executive Coaching career and
how to run an Executive Coaching Business.
