Coaching

The field of coaching can be a bit overwhelming. At its core though, coaching should create a development opportunity that is targeted, generates a higher level of commitment, and creates more sustainable change.

Coaching Process

ElliotSmith, LLC follows a specific coaching process. It is a very thorough and targeted approach to help our clients reach their desired outcome.

The ElliotSmith, LLC coaching process consists of four steps:
Picture

1. Define

​It is important that there is agreement on everything before entering into a coaching relationship. Here it is important to define the parameters of the coaching engagement, and the roles and responsibilities of the coach, coachee, and the sponsoring leader (if appropriate) or organization.

2. Design

In this step, the framework is designed, that includes the overall engagement goal, short-term goals, and specific focus areas. Assessments can also be conducted and reviewed in this step to help inform the design of the framework.

3. Act

In the Act step, coaching sessions begin and the coachee takes action on short-term goals related to achieving the overall engagement goal.

4. Transition

Here, the coach, coachee, and sponsoring leader (if appropriate) review and celebrate accomplishments and create a roadmap for moving beyond the coaching engagement.

Coaching Packages

Coaching helps leaders focus on utilizing their innate talent and existing skills in their current or desired future state. It is a form of development that is highly individualized and, when embraced, creates a higher level of ownership and success.

ElliotSmith, LLC offers four Coaching packages:

1. CLASSIC LEADERSHIP COACHING

  • Two 50 minute coaching sessions per month
  • Three month time frame
  • The CLASSIC is a great package for someone wanting to focus on a less complex goal over a shorter period of time. It provides a total of six coaching sessions to help the coachee identify action steps to move forward in the current state.
  • Other assessments available at an additional charge

2. PEAK LEADERSHIP COACHING

  • Two 50 minute coaching sessions per month
  • Six month time frame
  • The MBTI personality assessment
  • Five to seven feedback interviews with key stakeholders
  • The PEAK package is for individuals wanting to focus on a more complex goal over a longer period of time. The MBTI assessment and the key stakeholder interviews provide additional information for the leader on how they are perceived by others and what their strengths and opportunities are as seen by those they work with, for, and around. This additional information is then used to build a more comprehensive Action Plan that the remaining coaching sessions will focus on.
  • Other assessments available at an additional charge

3. MENTOR COACHING

  • Mentor coaching is an important component of the ICF credentialing journey for coaches, whether for the first time or as part of a credential renewal.
