Leadership for the 21st Century
According to Warren Bennis, “Coaching will become the model for leaders in the future…” Voices like Jack Welch of GE, Harvard Business Review and others have touted the future of coaching. And over and over, organizations that have embraced it have discovered it has a high return on investment, increases employee satisfaction, raises performance and lowers turnover.
“Coaching’s Bottom Line: It’s real, it works, and the results are spectacular… It elicits people’s best thinking and decision making so they can create results that are important to them, even on their own.” Absolute Advantage, “The Workplace Wellness Magazine”, October, 2002
