More infoNine Dots Development have a global network of Executive and Leadership Coaches with a variety of different styles and professional backgrounds and it is all about matching the right coaches to the right coachees. This is the process that we follow to ensure the best results:
We work with you as an organisation to understand why coaching is being put in place and what we are trying to achieve. We also explore how communication will take place and with whom with regards to the progress of the coaching sessions.
Once this has been established, we will look at who the best possible coaches would be for the individual/s that have been identified for the coaching, upon your approval of these coaches through analysis of their profiles, we would look to set-up a Chemistry Call between the prospective coach and the coachee.
A chemistry call is a conversation to establish the purpose, process and boundaries of the coaching to take place, during the course of this call both individuals will also be able to begin establishing rapport and forming an idea of if they will work well together.
Once a suitable coach has been identified it is time to book the first coaching session. Usually an initial 6 coaching sessions (each lasting between 60 and 90 minutes) will be commissioned with the option to extend the programme if required.
Progress will be reviewed within the pre-agreed guidelines and respecting the boundaries of confidentiality that have also been agreed. Once complete, discussions will take place with key stakeholders such as direct reports, colleagues and line managers as well as the coachee themselves to establish the impact that the coaching has had on the business.
