Coaching
Executive or “business” coaching focuses on helping individuals to go from where they are, to where they want themselves and their company to be.
Executive Coaching
A study from Stanford (2014) reveals that 75% of CEOs don't receive coaching or leadership advice and yet 100% of those asked answered they'd like to. Coaching at the senior level has come a long way from being a remedy for non-performance to being the method of choice for developing and sustaining strong leadership skills.
Expatriate Coaching
More than 50% of all corporate relocations fail. This damages individuals not to mention budget. At I&O we have all been expatriated ourselves. We use a toolkit of cultural orientations predictors, change/adjustment psychology and 360 awareness building to get results. Don't be a statistic.
Spousal Coaching
We help your employees and their families adapt to the challenges of expatriation and thrive in their new environment through the power of coaching. We use cultural orientation predictors, confidence training for seeking work and an open ear.
Cultivating a Coaching Culture
Coaching leaders to be internal coaches is a scalable, sustainable and impactful approach. We work with managers to give them the confidence and awareness to engage in coaching inspired dialogues with others.
Women in Leadership
In our experience, coaching women leaders can provide a number of key benefits, in particular relating to issues of influence, finding a strong voice and resilience. Let it be said though, we are great champions of exploiting the power of personal authenticity irrespective of gender.
Talent Coaching
The "war for talent" applies as much to the internal talent pool as it does to the external market. We coach senior managers to create a culture of talent development. We create awareness around matters such as leveraging problems as opportunities, changing performance management aligned to organizational objectives, and developing career progression models. From the other side of the table we work inspiringly with top talent, helping to align talent to the corporation and send the stars of tomorrow on their path with a jot less flash and a lot more self-awareness.
Workshops
Team Development, Change Management, new Leader Assimilation, leading High Performance Teams, finding your feet in Management, Communications Workshops, Coaching Skills for Managers to name a few - all our workshops are individually crafted to our clients’ targeted outcomes.
DISC | INSIGHTS MDI®
DISC Personality Profiling (Thomas International) is the international personal and business development tool and as such, an integral part of many business coaching programmes offered by I&O. INSIGHTS MDI® contains DISC within the assessment covering the behavioural aspect of a personality and combines it with the aspects that drive us - the motivators. We are trained in both. Get an analysis of yourself and a coaching session around it and you will better know yourself and how others see you. We use INSIGHTS MDI® for our bespoke team development workshops.
Log Book Method
The method of consistently capturing information relating to an expatriation assignment and using that information for the benefit of future assignees.
profilingvalues®
profilingvalues® is the personal profiling tool based on the Hartman Values Profile. It greatly distinguishes itself from other conventional assessment procedures since this is the first time that the values of a person can be measured. It describes personality traits in humans and the current use of individual potential. It is part of most of our coaching packages as it enables us to quickly get to the core of a situation with our clients.
Consulting
As business consultants and coaches we are often called in to support corporations with all manner of change related tasks, normally impacting the most precious resource, the workforce.
