Executive coaching

Executive coaching focuses on the top of an organization. It helps you as an executive manager, board member or director to develop skills that enable you to be a decisive leader of your organization. Such a coaching program is often used during change processes, where dialogue with surrounding teams is crucial. An executive coaching program can also provide support in taking essential career steps. Together, we look for ways to achieve more success using your own strengths by looking at how you can become the best leader and can thus take the organization to a higher level.

An executive coach can help you with the following questions or thoughts:

How can I profile myself best in critical situations?
I feel lonely at the top
How can I sharpen my vision?
How do I create an optimal “work-life balance”?
I need a sounding board that speaks the same language
How do I create an environment of involvement and optimal cooperation?

Executive coaching takes place one-on-one, usually at a fixed interval of once every two to three weeks. Together, we identify the individual points of interest and determine the objectives. We do not use a fixed pattern: the course and content of the conversations depend on the chosen goals and the situation.

Individual coaching

An individual coaching program offers insight into your preferences in behaviour, actions and perception. The coach ‘wakes you up’ and makes you more aware of your talents, qualities, possibilities and intuitive abilities.

An individual coaching program can help you with a wide range of topics, such as:

Personal issues
Finding a new challenge within or outside the organization where you currently work
Giving a boost to the collaboration between you and your colleagues, finding a good balance between process and content

Individual coaching takes place one-on-one, usually at a fixed interval of once every four to six weeks. Together, we identify the individual points of interest and determine the objectives. We do not use a fixed pattern: the course and content of the conversations depend on the chosen goals and the situation.

Career coaching

In a career coaching program we guide professionals who want to take the next step in their career or wonder whether the chosen career offers sufficient perspective. Such a program aims to clarify what your strengths are, and find out what you want and can currently do for your career. This will result in finding a suitable job or more pleasure and satisfaction are gained from your current job.

A career coach can help you with the following questions and thoughts:

How do I find out what I really want in my work?
I am unsure about the next step in my career
Is my current job still suitable?
Where does my talent lie, and how can I use it optimally in my work?
I want more meaning in my work
How do I find my passion and challenge in my work?
I want to experience more pleasure in my work

We usually start a career coaching program with a self-analysis, on the basis of which we draw up a search profile. In addition, relevant networks are mapped, and we set goals and a step-by-step plan to work towards during the program. We guide you through the entire program and provide support at every step of your career development.

A career coaching program of about six months is common and can help people get started in their new position. We do not use a fixed pattern: the course and content of the conversations depend on the chosen goals and the situation.

Team coaching

LAPOUTRE+ has experience in coaching teams at all levels within an organization, from operational level to executive level such as management teams, Board of Directors and Supervisory Board. A team coaching program supports teams in their development process towards a more successful and efficient team. The goal is to strengthen mutual relationships, cooperation and performance.

Managers are often too closely involved with a team to be able to see what is going on within a group of colleagues. An external team coach can help surface the problems of a less well-functioning team and work with the team to find solutions. A team coach helps teams with the following questions or thoughts:

What qualities are present within the team?
How can I ensure that my team works better together?
Why are there conflicts between team members, and how can they be resolved?
Is the vision clear for the team, and does everyone support it?
How can we, as a team, deal with changes?
How do we make our team more targeted and efficient?

A team coaching program is always tailor-made, depending on the team’s current situation and needs. Together, we identify the team’s specific points of interest and determine the objectives. We do not use a fixed pattern: the course and content of the conversations depend on the chosen goals and the situation.
