“Throughout a twelve month period, we worked with agc’s assistance as our team coach. The results were fantastic - the team could see the progress they made towards achieving their own objectives and the importance of keeping on track and regularly reviewing results. The recognition the whole team received from the broader business was testament to success of the project and agc’s input, with a number of individuals winning peer-nominated awards for their achievements” Yvonne Byrne, State Manager Fujifilm Australia

1. Individual Executive Coaching

What is it?
Individual Leadership Coaching is about...

Getting the best from your people - clarity, focus, motivation, relationships, results
Addressing performance "blind spots"
Retaining your talented people
Supporting individuals to achieve team and organisational goals
Facilitating and fast-tracking change and growth
Improving productivity and impacting on bottom line results

“Thank you for the work you have done with me as a follow-up to the Building Leadership Capability workshop at ABN AMRO. I have found this (the GROWTH model) to be a thoroughly beneficial coaching tool that I am now using on a regular basis. It has allowed me to not only assess and action my growth but has shown me how to get the most out of my staff. As a result I am now more satisfied, focused and open in my dealings with them.” Mitchell Owens, ABN AMRO Group Australia/NZ

How does one-on-one coaching work?

1. We examine your organisational targets and the related individual needs of your people to provide a context for the coaching.
2. We assist you with selecting people who would gain the most benefits from coaching
3. Individualised coaching sessions, based on specific goals, are delivered weekly, fortnightly or monthly for an agreed period of time.
4. The coach meets with the person involved to review performance, establish goals and set mutually agreed tasks for completion in between each coaching session. (A coaching folder and other resources are provided, including professional reading to assist in the professional development process.)
5. The coach is available to participants via phone and email between sessions to support focused achievement of tasks
6. We work with the individual and your organisation to monitor and assess progress
7. We apply the right balance of pressure and support to ensure quality results from every participant in a way that aligns with your organisational needs.

A one-on-one coaching series typically involves 1-2 hour sessions for 6 to 10 sessions in order to support sustainable improvement. (See typical coaching series content below.)

2. Team Coaching

Our team coaching system now brings the power of the GROWTH model to help teams achieve outstanding results.

Just as this clear, easy to apply GROWTH framework provides genuine clarity and focus delivering real benefits to individuals, it does the same for teams.

There are 3 components of this approach...

1. Briefing

“John just a short note to thank you for the great stuff you did on advanced coaching last week to our group. I am a great believer in the importance of coaching and the part it plays in bringing my teams goals/visions and even dreams to reality. You present with a warm and engaging style that somehow demystifies the whole process.” Bob Fairless National Circulation Manager, Fairfax Business Media

This 2-3 hour briefing session with the team leader and other key resource people scopes the project and identifies critical parameters and background issues.

2. Team workshop
The team workshop, a 1 day session usually conducted offsite, provides the basic structure for any team performance improvement project. Using the GROWTH model as the basic framework for the session it delivers a clear focused team plan built around strong levels of ownership and commitment. Clear priorities and accountabilities are identified and agreed to and everyone leaves the session on the 'same page'.

3. Follow up coaching and progress checking sessions
This part of the system is essential to ensure that the team continues to work on its top priorities rather than being distracted by the day-to-day concerns that inevitably appear. This is how new team behaviours and skills are sustained so that lasting results are achieved. Just as ongoing individual coaching sessions provide continuity and accountability so these follow up team sessions ensure that this is much more than just a team building exercise.
