Training, Coaching, and Consulting: How Are They Different?
John Mattone![Executive leadership coaching] Degrees are great, but successful executive coaches bring hard-won wisdom and additional training to the table too.[/caption] Success in the field of executive leadership coaching often grows from a strong background in business. Many people make the transition from HR professional to coach, or from successful executive to executive coach. However, executive coaches may come from just about any background, including STEM, healthcare, teaching, or even sports coaching. Whether executive leadership coaching is a good career choice depends on several factors. Let’s talk about some of them. A Day in the Life of the Typical Executive Leadership Coach If you want rock-solid predictability in your day-to-day tasks, then executive leadership coaching is probably not for you. On some days you may see clients in person, or meet with a company’s senior executive staff. On others, you may speak with coaching clients over the phone or on Skype. Another day, you may administer evaluation tools to clients and score them to learn where you’ll be starting with that client. With executive leadership coaching, you’re not trying to change who people are into some prototype of the “successful executive.” Rather, you’re helping them tap into their strengths and understand the mindsets and habits that sabotage their efforts, according to coach and trainer Sandra Richardson. Both Coaching and Business Skills Required to Succeed Professionally If you are to make a career out of executive leadership coaching, then you must accept that not only will you be coaching clients, you will be running a business, with all that entails. Therefore, if you lack basic business skills, you will have trouble making your career work even if you have outstanding coaching skills. This is the reason that many mid-career and later-career professionals integrate executive leadership coaching into their existing careers, or gradually make the transition from being, say, a counselor or business leader into being an executive leadership coach. Tips on Succeeding at Executive Leadership Coaching First of all, you must consider executive leadership coaching within the context in which you want to practice. For example, you will need to approach your career differently if you’re in New York City than if you’re in Mumbai or Beijing.
