Executive Coaching: 

Developing Leaders for High Performance

​

Our coaches range in expertise and background from former senior leaders in a wide variety of industries to consultants who have spent a lifetime exploring, researching, and applying what it takes to develop successful and purposeful leaders.

We believe that the best coaching occurs within context, working with individual leaders to drive personal behavioural change against the backdrop of the business strategy and the larger team. 

Along the way, we have developed a defined approach to coaching leaders using the 4 A’s methodology (Agreement, Alignment, Action and Acceleration). 

Five benefits of

Linkage Executive Coaching

Team Coaching: 

ADVANCING TOP TEAM EFFECTIVENESS

Top teams, by default, are the most important teams in the organization because decision-making and strategy formulation tend to cascade from the top. Unfortunately, high-performance top teams are exceptionally rare. The key difference between average teams and exceptional teams lies in aspects of trust, ability to debate issues, commitment, accountability and clarity of goals. Great teams also have good structure, pay great attention to results and have suitable supporting processes.
