Elevate your organization with great leadership
If you’ve climbed the corporate ladder high enough to reach the level of CEO, you’re likely a seasoned business pro with years of leadership experience. Even if this is the case, leadership is a skill which can always be perfected, and staying sharp will help your company thrive.
I have the privilege of working as a business coach in the Fort Wayne area and I have served numerous businesses in Huntington, Auburn and the Midwest. While I offer coaching services for businesses of all types and sizes, and have experience working with people in different positions, training executives is one of my favorite tasks.
Most CEOs are high-achieving, growth-minded and successful people. This makes them the ideal people to work with because they already have a winning mindset, and in my advanced leadership training they thrive off the new ideas and proven strategies I share with them.
In this article, I will discuss a few key aspects of my leadership training for executives and explain how it can help even the best CEOs lead in a more effective way.
The first thing to understand about advanced leadership training is there is no one size fits all option. Usually my CEO training is done in a one on one setting, which gives us the opportunity for dialogue and a personalized experience.
When training CEOs, the need for basic tactics is not there, so we can focus on personal details. I learn about the person I am working with on a deep personal level and understand what motivates them and learn their leadership style. Once I have a better idea of how the executive operates, I can help them unlock their most effective leadership habits.
I have worked with commanding individuals who demanded the attention of any board meeting and with meek executives who were quiet but intuitive and any personality type between, and what I have found is each person can be successful if they stay true to who they are and embrace their personality as a leader. Our CEO leadership training covers this advanced stage of leadership development.
On the other side of the equation when dealing with leadership is how to deal with the people you are managing. Just because you find your ideal leadership style does not mean you treat every one of your direct reports the exact same way.
The best leaders learn how to read their subordinates and truly understand how they operate and what motivates them. In advanced leadership training, we cover the nuances to pick up on when evaluating talent, managing existing employees and even delegating tasks and promoting employees to new roles.
A leader must build a team around themselves to compliment their strengths and make up for their weaknesses, and when I work with CEOs we ensure they understand the need to motivate every member of their team so the company as a whole can thrive.
