Why Blanchard Coaching Ireland?
At Blanchard Coaching Ireland, we are passionate about making coaching easy and cost effective for HR directors, senior executives and company sponsors to provide to the people who want it and need it. We're guided by this vision since we started coaching globally in February of 2000. To be the best, we have focused on the following:
In addition, coaching is a one-to-one process and a relationship between an individual and a coach, face to face or combined with supportive telephone calls, with specific objectives and goals focused on developing potential, improving relationships, and enhancing performance.
Focus on business results.
We focus solely on business coaching to achieve results for the organisation that hires us. Our clients have conducted a number of international impact evaluations that demonstrate the results they have delivered with our support (ask for details). We do not provide life coaching or career coaching following outplacement.
Organisational trend reporting.
After each coaching session, the Blanchard coach is required to note the focus areas that were addressed, progress made and any organisational issues or trends they may have heard in an appropriate systematic way. This information may include organisational barriers that may be getting in the way of many individuals achieving results. This process occurs while preserving individual confidentiality, which is a bedrock of our coaching philosophy.
Experience and expertise.
We were pioneers in the coaching industry in the USA and have been providing large-scale coaching services for six years. We are pleased to be in a position to offer coaching in Ireland too with our local team. Our coaching experts have written books on the subject and on leadership and authored a number of articles that have appeared in a number of reputable publications (e.g., Harvard Management Update. T & D magazinessee appendix), and spoken at coaching conferences around the world.
Our infrastructure.
People are enthusiastic when they leave our training programs, and they have every intention of using the skills and tools they have learned. A coach supports individuals in acting on their good intentions by practicing real-life scenarios, troubleshooting when roadblocks come up, and more.
Our intellectual property.
Our coaches can utilise many coaching models as well as Blanchard's proprietary leadership models and tools, such as Situational Leadership II (SLII), when appropriate during the coaching process. This material is some of most research driven and rich leadership material available.
Our coaches are held to a higher standard.
In most cases, Coach Certification from the International Coach Federation is a must, but not enough. Our coaches must demonstrate their coaching skills as they progress through a rigorous interview process. In addition, our coaches are provided ongoing development of their skills and are evaluated on an ongoing basis using key metrics to ensure quality.
Impact services.
Front-end assessments, impact mapping and a thorough orientation process prepare organisations, individuals, and coaches for coaching initiatives, and enhance our ability to meet unique needs. On the back-end, we follow up with impact analyses, producing detailed reports of the learning, achievements, and changes that result.
