Skill
development is ongoing throughout our lives. Our families and schools
support this and in the workplace many employers provide
opportunities. Whether developing general life skills or specialized
skills, executive
coaching certification adds value. To back that statement up,
look at the study done by the Personnel Management Association:
training provides a 22% improvement and training plus coaching
provides an 88% improvement. How does coaching make so much of a
difference? Because an individual with executive coaching
certification is like your GPS for direction, and works with you on
how you personally will implement your learning, then serves as an
accountability partner for keeping you on track.
What
are methodologies for coaching as your GPS to skill development? Yes,
there are multiple options for how to get there. To get started with
a few directions, create
a list of skills that are relevant and important for you to
develop. Next rank your level of skill in each of these areas. Then
prioritize developing the skills.
Another
approach is to list both your strengths and weakness in different
skills. Then choose one strength you want to continue developing, one
weakness you want to develop, and identify one skill that directly
impacts your success that you want to develop.
Working
with a coach
as you take these steps enhances your outcomes because executive
coaching certification teaches the coach to help you clarify your
thinking and expand your options.
Once
you decide where you want to go, your coach works with you on how you
will get there. Of course with skill development reading,
researching, and training are obvious options. Coaches will initiate
brainstorming experiential learning opportunities, create stretch
learning opportunities, and will role play with you too. Executive
coaching certification teaches coaches to partner with you to
strategize your application of information
so you develop your skills.
