Coaching Process
The coaching provided by WCS is all about leveling up by boosting personal insights, fine-tuning leadership skills, and making sure folks bring serious value to their teams. The approach to coaching at WCS is focused on syncing individual goals with the needs of the organization. WCS offers a continuum of coaching options for mid-level managers to senior leaders. WCS fully understands that each person’s needs and each organization's situation are unique and need to be fully understood for coaching to be optimally effective. As a result, the WCS coaching process begins with a “discovery” process prior to moving into the active "coaching" phase. At the beginning of the coaching journey, WCS dives deep into getting to know you, starting with an assessment to understand your unique personality traits, motivations, values, strengths, and where you're aiming to grow. WCS also digs into your organization and your role there—both now and what you are interested in for the future -- to make sure everyone's on the same page about the intended goals to achieve through coaching. This helps track progress and see the evaluate the results down the road. Once we've figured out the game plan in the discovery phase, it's time for the main coaching event. It's different for everyone, but it usually involves a series of regular, face-to-face sessions. |
WCS coaching is interactive and action oriented. That means we're not just talking theory—we're diving into your efforts to make real changes. You'll get hands-on feedback, practice new skills, and apply what you're learning. WCS wants to check-in often enough to make sure clients are on track and making those coaching sessions count.
At WCS, coaching is mainly aimed at current leaders and those hoping to move up the leadership pipeline -- and aims to tailor coaching processes to align with the unique needs and realities of the individual and the organization. WCS believes coaching really shines when someone's at an important juncture -- like stepping into a new role, facing a unique challenge, or aiming for greater responsibility. These moments call for new and different skills, whether it's diving into a new functional area, thinking about the big-picture, inspiring others, or tackling large-scale change. |
