Executive Coaching

A common misconception is to think that executive coaching is for the exclusive realm of the C-Suite - and once upon a time, it was. But today, professional coaching is more accessible than ever no matter your position on the organisation chart. No matter who you are, you not only have the capacity for growth and leadership development but access as well.

If you are feeling stuck or falling behind in your professional journey, there’s a practical and result-guaranteed solution. Working with an executive and leadership development coach will generate the self-awareness you need to unlock your potential and catapult your career forward.

Executive and leadership development coaching is a professional development strategy that involves an executive or high-potential employee working with a coach to unlock their full capability, improve their performance, and achieve their goals. The primary aim of executive coaching is to enhance leadership and management performance, through the development of an individual's self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and capacity to influence others for lasting impact.

Our role as your coach is to inspire and support you as you work toward realising your full potential and beyond. With our help, you will learn to see yourself more clearly — with compassion and no judgement — and discover the full extent of your capabilities.

  1. Obtaining and offering feedback
  2. Identifying development opportunities
  3. Raising awareness
  4. Creating solutions by asking the right questions
  5. Promoting lifelong learning for lasting impact
  6. Offering long-term support
  7. Developing a system of accountability and monitoring progress

Remember, each type of coaching serves a distinct purpose and addresses varying needs present at a particular time. As an executive, you may find yourself partaking in multiple forms of coaching throughout your career, depending on your evolving ambitions and challenges. Your choice will ultimately depend on your unique situation, the hurdles at hand, and the goals you're striving for.

  • A confidential and impartial partnership in an often-solitary role.
  • Tools to help executives to achieve exceptionally levels of performance.
  • Competences to navigate challenging and competitive environments.
  • Navigating career change.
  • Strategic thinking development.
  • Maximise operating in your zone of genius.
  • Empowerment and focus.
  • Conflict resolution skills and resilience training.
  • Overcoming setbacks.
  • Time, stress, and emotion management.
  • New perspectives, insight and clarity.
  • Work-life balance practices.

ThinkRight executive and leadership development coaching can lead to a substantial increase in individual performance, often reflected in goal attainment, success, and clearer communication.

we help you identify your dreams, passions, ambitions, drivers, values, and needs. ThinkRight coaching works together with you to set SMART goals with feasible milestones and concrete deadlines along with transferable skills. Together we keep tabs on your progress, so that you realise targets according to your timeline.

ThinkRight executive and leadership development coaching provides crucial support in developing important leadership skills such as effectual communication, critical thinking, being assertive without malice, and emotional intelligence.

Because making decisions and choosing between difficult choices can be stressful, working with a ThinkRight coach will encourage you to ask better questions and evaluate options from different perspectives to identify the best solution. This is because when you’re stuck, your coach can be a beneficial sounding board to help you work through the possibilities and find your way.

ThinkRight coaching will help you to shed light on new possibilities in difficult situations. We will help you to view challenges from different viewpoints, apply your skillset in new ways, and confront and shed limiting beliefs. This knowledge enables you to be courageous and make bold decisions.

Working with a ThinkRight coach will also provide you with the much need space to rehearse and receive feedback on your communication skills, style, and how to benevolently influence and upskill others.

As you climb the corporate ladder it is not uncommon to experience isolation and loneliness because not many people can relate to the responsibility and associated stress. Nevertheless, many ThinkRight clients have found that the coaching relationship helps them to mitigate their feelings of isolation and loneliness.

Work doesn’t end at the close of a session, many of our clients use ThinkRight coaching as a way of stay accountable and staying on track towards their goals.

As we do not tell you what to do or how to lead your team or organisation, we rather offer you support in identifying your available options, weighing the benefits and risks and creating your own path forward. This will empower you to be the best leader you can possibly be and generate more confidence in your leadership skills and decision-making abilities.

Many ThinkRight coaching clients have reported numerous added personal benefits which include elevated levels of self-awareness, improved self-regulation, increased levels of empathy, a boost in cognition at work, improvements in levels of motivation, and enriched social skills.

By working with a ThinkRight coach, you not only gain insightful awareness into yourself, but you will also gain an impartial sounding board, motivator, and accountability partner. Our coaching methodology empowers you to discover the right answers within yourself by asking you direct and powerful questions, helping you shift your perspectives, and discover new opportunities. At ThinkRight Coaching we believe that in every problem lies opportunity – we help you find those opportunities and turn them into success.

Coaching at every level, whether it be for senior leaders, executives, and business owners is important because it provides you with a greater sense of purpose and fulfilment, which are fundamental drivers in our lives. The majority of organisation leaders have blind spots, and working with ThinkRight executive coaching will assist in shining a light on those problematic areas to promote, safe-guard and sustain your growth.

“Success is about finding what works and doing more of it.”

Whether you’re a business owner, a member of c-suite, business unit manager, team leader, or entrepreneur the pressure and the stakes are always high, and learning never stops. There is always new learning to incorporate; new strategies to devise, several perspectives to appreciate, different customer types to regard, and employees to lead and motivate. For these reasons and more, industry professionals are steadily turning to executive coaching for leadership development, sustainable performance, and support especially during times of transition.

At ThinkRight Executive Coaching we partner with you to help you navigate the complexed and often tricky positions that you as a business leader find yourself in. We offer you support and encouragement to find the best solution to deal with intricate decision making by raising your self-awareness and helping you to understand others.

If you are seeking guidance around how you can development and excel in your personal life, career and profession, or business; then ThinkRight Executive Coaching is ideal for you. We will empower you to leverage your strengths and even your non-strengths to your advantage. We will offer you a space where you can focus and assess your thinking to gain clarity and craft new strategies and action plans that will work for you in your current circumstance. You will feel equipped to apply your learnings to all aspects of your life – professional and personal. Your commitment to the process and coaching journey is what will determine your success.

We guarantee that on this journey you will gain:

  • Greater self-awareness
  • Success in navigating transitions
  • Ability to surmount setbacks
  • Assertiveness and self-confidence
  • Emotional Resilience

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to executive coaching and no coaching session is ever the same. At ThinkRight Executive Coaching we prioritise building a collaborative relationship with you and customise our approach to fit your individual strengths, non-strengths, goals, vision, and needs.

Our on-demand executive leadership coaching is ideal in supporting you to get focused and grounded quickly and can help with:

  • Offering a confidential and safe space free of judgement to test ideas;
  • Providing real-time feedback and support;
  • Managing, regaining, and sustaining energy and focus;
  • Evoking a sense of clarity and purpose; and
  • Navigating tough decisions.

You can expect to be asked direct and powerful questions that will not only help you gain more clarity but also challenge your assumptions and beliefs. This can oftentimes be very unpleasant, as it exposes some of your blind spots and biases. Even though this process can bring about a lot of discomfort in the moment, this is par for the course in shifting perspectives and mindset, especially ones that have been held as convictions for a very long time, even when they do not serve you anymore. It is important to be fully open and honest with yourself and your coach when answering these questions as withholding essential information out of guilt or shame will affect the success of your coaching sessions. Remember that your coach will never judge you and is there to support and encourage you along your coaching journey.

An executive coaching session can range between 45 to 60 minutes and can be delivered either in person or virtually – geographic limitations and travel are not an issue. Depending on time commitments and or constraints, coaching sessions take place ideally on a weekly basis, and depending on your needs, the process can range from 2 months or a lifetime. Unfortunately, there are no quick fixes to sustainable and long term change.

  • Professionalism and ethical
  • Their full and undivided attention
  • To be in the presence of someone who is fully listening to you without judgment
  • To keep the focus on you and your goals

  • Total acceptance and respect

  • To be challenged to think differently, to see things differently
  • Someone who facilitates a process for you to come to a deeper understanding of yourself.
  • Encouragement and support

While everyone’s coaching journey is unique to them, however, at ThinkRight executive coaching we encourage our clients to prepare for their first session by writing down everything they would like to work on, change or improve, obstacles and challenges that they believe are standing in their way and share it with their executive coach. There’s no need for pretence or to be defensive or secretive, your coach will never judge you and fully respects you.

We also suggest to our clients to approach the coaching process with an open mind and a receptive attitude. We ask you to trust and remain commitment to the process no matter how uncomfortable it may get at times. Transformation and reaching your full potential requires investment and unwavering commitment to the journey. Do not be surprised at the unexpected turns your journey will take, know that you are in good hands, your coach is there with you every step of the way.

Team Coaching

Have you noticed the following dynamics in your team:

  • Lack of trust between your team members?
  • Communication breakdown within the team?
  • Is the team struggling to meet the goals and objectives set by the organisation?
  • Do all team members voice their thoughts and opinions in meetings?
  • Are there team members that don’t voice their thoughts and opinions often or at all?
  • Has productivity decreased within the team?
  • Are team members content and engaged?
  • Have any team members expressed that they’re not happy in their role or at work?
  • Team members avoiding meetings or calling in sick?

If you’ve noticed three or more of these symptoms, then perhaps it’s time to invest in some team coaching.

Think Right Today’s Team Coaching is a strategic service devised to tackle and resolve team-based challenges within an organisation. By assessing specific concerns and originating customised development programmes, our coaching assist teams to enhance their operational effectiveness and productivity. From promoting a shared vision to implementing targeted development plans, Think Right Today team coaching helps to bridge communication gaps between managers and their teams, align team members with organisational culture and values, and facilitate opportunities for synergistic collaboration across the organisation.

At Think Right Today our team coaching approach help teams establish honest and authentic communication; collaborate successfully on projects; maintain accountability and meeting deadlines, demonstrate independence and proactivity in tasks; handle workplace stress and conflict; become innovating and solution focused; foster and strengthen workplace relationships; remaining motivated and engaged.

Team building: Team building tends to focus on improving interpersonal relationships, productivity and alignment with an organisation’s goals. It typically consists of short, often one-day interventions. In contrast, team coaching is considered to typically take place over a series of sessions.

Team facilitation: While a coach may at times use facilitation skills, facilitation can be considered a way of helping a team manage their dialogue, compared to team coaching, which aims to empower a team to take ownership for their own dialogue.

Team coaching is distinct from other forms of coaching.

Individual performance is dependent on team climate and environment, and high individual performance is not always commensurate with high team performance. Often, positive changes to individual behaviour are lost long-term if the environment is not supportive, or indeed, high performers leave the organisation altogether.

  • Whilst 1:1 coaching focuses on the individual, team coaching aligns individual priorities with team priorities, making the link between individual and team more conscious. It focuses on the system of which individuals are part, and situates learning within a team context in order to deliver performance improvements.

  • Team coaching is a holistic method that drives lasting change. It acknowledges that teams are dynamic systems with their own values, standards, touch points and complex rules of behaviour that are likely to be unknown to outsiders – in short, that they are more than a collection of individuals.

  • Team coaching only works for 'real teams', not for pseudo-teams. (Pseudo-teams are groups who work together and appear to be a team, but in fact do not share objectives and a purpose.) In this context, team coaching is unlikely to be effective in yielding sustainable performance improvements.

  • Teams need to have a desire for 'collective improvement'. In other words, in order to be effective, the will to learn from team coaching and introduce sustained change needs to come from within and cannot be imposed from without.

[Team coaching] enabl[es] a team to function at more than the sum of its parts, by clarifying its mission and improving its external and internal relationships. It is different therefore from coaching team leaders on how to lead their teams, or coaching individuals in a group setting."

– Hawkins and Smith, 2006

“Success is about finding what works and doing more of it.”

Many people confuse coaching with counselling/therapy or mentoring and can often use the terms interchangeably. While all these practices revolve themselves around personal development, However, where each practice differs is in terms of scope and methodology.

The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines counselling as “professional guidance of the individual by utilising psychological methods, especially in collecting case history data, using various techniques of the personal interview, and testing interests and aptitudes.” Hence, counselling involves a more emotions-based, problem-specific evaluation of one’s history to provide specific and appropriate guidance. In counselling you and your counsellor spend time examining your past, evaluating how it affects your present behaviour, responses, perspectives, and actions. Through the counselling process, you attempt to work through and heal past trauma and issues to provide mental and emotional well-being in the present.

Numerous people who have been through counselling or therapy often realise that they need a practical approach to apply all the knowledge and understanding that they have accumulated over time. They want to figure out ways to effectively structure their lives, work out their purpose and what they want to achieve with their lives. At this point in their self-development journey, people want tailormade strategies unique to them and their circumstances that will help them to become the people they long to be and live out the future desire. This is where coaching comes in.

Coaching is an equal partnership between a coach and a client where the client directs the process and drives the direction of the conversation and session. A coaching session focuses solely on the outcome the client desires for. A coaches role is to facilitate their client’s forward movement towards their goals, dreams and desired future. A successful coaching session is one where a client is empowered to uncover and develop their own unique path and strategy to achieving their goal and attain their desired future. Thus, coaching is always oriented towards the future. Life coaching is about taking you from your present reality and moving you towards your desired future, not by digging into you past to shed light into your present, but by journeying into your future, understanding what it is exactly that you want from it, and then working out practical and effective strategies in the present that will help you get there.

Therapy and counselling focus on a person’s healing through an examination of their past, whilst coaching is more performance driven to practically move a person forward into living out the life that want. Even though coaching has many therapeutic elements to it like counselling/therapy, but unlike counselling, coaching does not offer therapeutic outcomes. Coaching is an interactive process where you are given the space to try new things, make note of positive and negative outcomes, reflect on your plans and activities, remain focused on your pursuits, document your actions and insights, evaluate your progress, acknowledge and celebrate your accomplishments. There is a lot to do and focus on during and after your coaching sessions which can feel hard and be very challenging, but it will all be worth it in the end!

If you are seeking guidance around how you can development, move forward, and excel in your personal life; then ThinkRight Life Coaching is ideal for you. We will empower you to leverage your strengths and even your non-strengths to your advantage. We will offer you a space where you can focus and assess your thinking to gain clarity and craft new strategies and action plans that will work for you in your current circumstance. You will feel equipped to apply your learnings to all aspects of your life – professional and personal. Your commitment to the process and coaching journey is what will determine your success.

We guarantee that on this journey you will gain:

  • Greater self-awareness
  • Success in navigating transitions
  • Ability to surmount setbacks
  • Assertiveness and self-confidence
  • Emotional Resilience

While coaching and mentorship have similar aims in some ways such as helping you recognise and understand your abilities and aptitudes, improve your personal and professional performance, and promote a growth mindset. The results of engaging in either a coaching partnership or a mentoring relationship are also similar in enhancing self-confidence, mental agility, resilience, broadening your perspective, and in some instances expand your professional network.

However, mentoring is a more directed, and often more beneficial exchange for the person being mentored, long-term relationship between a more experienced mentor and an inexperienced mentee. The purpose of the relationship is for long-term personal and or career development of the mentee where the mentor does most of the talking and offers advice. This is in contrast to coaching which is a true partnership of equals between the coach and the client. Mentoring most typically consists of a more experienced person or mentor intentionally and directly guiding the mentee through an experience that the mentor has already been through.

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to executive coaching and no coaching session is ever the same. At ThinkRight Life Coaching we prioritise building a collaborative relationship with you and customise our approach to fit your individual strengths, non-strengths, goals, vision, and needs.
