Coaching Rising Leaders

They’re at every company, in all different departments -- the rising stars, the promising leaders, uniformly acknowledged as “top talent.” They’re the bench strength executives turn to when filling vacated leadership positions, as organizational change shifts the powers that be.

How does a company ensure this gifted pool of emerging leaders gets the guidance and coaching they need to realize their full potential?

With Horizon Leadership’s - Coaching Rising Leaders

The Horizon Leadership Difference
When your company has people poised to make the move to key leadership positions, we’ll help them get ready. Horizon Leadership provides cutting-edge individual coaching strategies for talented employees -- from the hot-shot front line manager to the fast-track young executive, and every top talent in between.

Linking in-depth 360 degree feedback and observations to the fundamental convictions and beliefs of the clients -- then creating and coaching them through a development plan for success – Horizon Leadership’s coaching strategies equip them with critical leadership skills needed to achieve optimal business results.

The Horizon Leadership difference is evident in three key aspects of the process:

1. In-depth 360 degree feedback: Horizon Leadership goes well beyond the standard 360 degree feedback form, using one-on-one interviews with peers, direct reports and supervisors to extract rich details and telling observations about workplace behaviors.
2. Mental Models:  Horizon Leadership uncovers an individual’s core beliefs – those deeply held convictions that are the drivers of workplace behavior. Revealing these mental models starts individuals on a path of self discovery that will help them change, grow, and ultimately develop into stronger leaders.
3. Metrics: Business is about generating return on investment; committing resources to coaching is no different. Horizon Leadership will employ sophisticated metrics to measure the client’s ability to demonstrate new behaviors defined in the development plan.

                                     
According to Fortune Magazine (“Leadership 2007: The business of building leaders” – October 1, 2007), companies widely recognized for their commitment to leadership development are moving past reserving coaching programs for an elite group several years into their careers. Says Fortune: “They believe that nurturing future leaders earlier than other companies creates a competitive advantage that lasts for decades, as their talent pipelines become bigger, better and more reliable.”

Differentiate your company with Horizon’s Coaching Rising Leaders. Cascade benefits of coaching normally reserved for top tier executives more deeply into your organization. You’ll inspire and accelerate young leaders, keep high potential employees from withering away at jobs they’ve outgrown, and avoid losing your investment in essential talent when a gifted but frustrated leader walks out the door.
