Leadership Development/Executive Coaching

Your current and future leaders require the self-management, interpersonal and
organizational skills to successfully guide their teams through challenges,
communicate effectively, and make the right decisions. At The Forster Group, we
help your key leadership people to:

• Assess their practices and abilities, and identify strengths and weaknesses
• Develop future goals and priorities with a plan to achieve and sustain
• Develop and/or enhance critical leadership skills
• Achieve meaningful personal change aligned with the organization

With our diverse group of expert executive coaches, we can match to different leadership styles and needs, and maximize the benefits of coaching. The common denominator in our
approach to coaching is accountability and sustained shifts in leadership behaviours. In our management workshops, participants will receive training that addresses key manager responsibilities, with an emphasis on the skills needed to excel in the contemporary organization.

Team Performance

Whether you are a leadership team, an operational workgroup, or a corporate board, to be
high-performing you must be engaged, adaptive and productive. High-performing teams understand their interdependence and know how to leverage their diverse talents to deliver results in a dynamic, complex context. At The Forster Group, we will:

• Assess team members and facilitate shared understanding and appreciation of the team profile
• Create a collaborative, practice-focused environment to enable the team to build
  productive team competencies during the learning process
• Development of  clear lines of communication and direction for the entire team

We offer the facilitated team experience in single or multiple training sessions, or in an in-depth retreat format.  Our approach to addressing team performance enhances the use of assessments and workshops with the skilled use of coaching in the team context and in follow-up contacts. Our ultimate goal is to have the team develop the capacity to sustain itself through its own self-evaluation and ability to adapt.

Internal coaches and coaching programs provide a powerful, cost-effective resource to
support talent performance and development. Coaching also influences changes in
organizational culture that lead to goal-focused, accountable, fluid organizations. At The Forster Group, we can:

• Assess the coaching potential in your organization
• Provide your staff fully structured coach training, delivered by accomplished, expert coaches
• Design and implement a high-value, sustainable internal coach program

We have considerable experience in diverse applications of coaching, including the development of internal coaches. Our emphasis is on creating high-value coaching competency in your organization.
