Only exemplary leaders can make extraordinary contributions to the development of people and the execution of an organization’s vision and mission. Leadership is not something that an individual does, but a manifestation and expression of an inward reality and way of being.

Special Training – Embracing a Coaching Leadership Style
A study was published in the Journal of Management Development (2018) titled “Training for the coaching leader: how organizations can support managers” by Milner, McCarthy, and Milner
The researchers noted that most executives report that they are effective in coaching. However, the reality is that these individuals think that they are coaching when, in reality, they are officious, merely telling others what to do.
The researchers found that if managers were willing to invest time and energy, they could learn how to leverage coaching skills in about 15 hours.
The recommendations they made for this type of professional development:
- Make sure that managers/leaders are clear on what coaching is
- Provide opportunities to practice in a safe environment
- Ensure that reflection on skills and skill development is built-in
- Use expert coaches to offer training and feedback
