As a FocalPoint coach working closely with many CEOs and senior executives leading prominent corporations across the greater Wauwatosa area, I’ve witnessed firsthand the tangible and transformational benefits these leaders obtain when proactively investing in their own development through one-on-one executive coaching frameworks.
While some view coaching as merely remedial – reserved for struggling leaders needing basic help – the reality is even the most outwardly accomplished CEOS at the pinnacle of their field have blindspots, unseen growth opportunities, and ample room for leadership skills expansion to carry their organizations to the next level and beyond.
By enlisting an expert coach like myself for an outside perspective, Wauwatosa executives gain:
A Fresh Set of “Eyes” Identifying Untapped Potential
An unbiased executive coach with extensive breadth of experience across a multitude of industries, leadership scenarios, failures and triumphs, provides invaluable “fresh eyes” to pinpoint growth areas a seasoned CEO is simply too deep in the weeds of daily operations to see for themselves. Ongoing coaching assessments deliver previously invisible patterns, insights, and action plans for optimizing a CEO’s leadership effectiveness right now plus evolving adaptability for the future.
A Confidential Sounding Board
Overworked CEOs can privately brainstorm solutions under a confidential coaching umbrella—no need to avoid sharing vulnerabilities, uncertainty, or big ideas that might unintentionally rattle employees or shareholders if explored publicly too soon. Coaches give Wauwatosa leaders trusted thinking partners where anything and everything is on the table for productive problem solving.
Increased Accountability Through Proven Action Planning
Targeted coaching pivots untapped potential into clearly defined development goals then concrete, customized action planning steps keyed to each CEO’s distinct situation. This drives lasting positive behavior change through consistent accountability – tracking progress milestones session to session amplifies follow through between coaching touchpoints.
Emotional Intelligence & Resiliency Skill Building
The consistent personal support structure of one-on-one coaching helps already successful Wauwatosa CEOs proactively develop enhanced stress adaption, emotional intelligence, mental resiliency, communication finesse and change management skills—preventatively fueling enduring performance despite volatility.
With over 80% of Fortune 500 companies leveraging executive coaches for senior management, local Wauwatosa CEOs have ample proof this investment similarly achieves amplified strategic thought leadership, values-driven cultural influence, talent magnetism, and efficiency gains. Some common developmental components I leverage through coaching to spur expanded growth include:
360 Performance Reviews
Combining thorough multi-rater feedback from reports, leadership peers, governing boards and even family, with tailored one-on-one coaching gives CEOs a comprehensive view of stakeholder perceptions, making perspective shifts easier.
Quarterly Coaching
Consistent coaching cadence provides accountability formats for analyzing what leadership behavior pivots cement into natural habits quickly versus what requires more iterative practice over time.
Vision Realization Planning
Exploring aspirational visions for yourself as a leader, the talent and culture you’re shaping, your team’s potential, and overall company trajectory provides a vivid directional compass to guide daily decisions, align resources properly, and measure if top priorities need realignment.
