Executive Coaching Goals: Examples to Help You Get Started   

   

Setting clear goals for your executive coaching programme is an important step in maximising its effectiveness. Your goals should be specific, measurable, and achievable within the time frame of your coaching programme. In this post, we’ll explore some examples of executive coaching goals to help you get started.   

One common goal for executive coaching is to improve leadership skills. This may include developing skills in areas such as communication, delegation, team building, and decision making. For example, a specific leadership goal could be to improve communication skills by learning how to give effective feedback to team members.   

Another goal for executive coaching may be to improve your performance in your current role. This could involve setting goals for improving specific aspects of your job performance, such as meeting deadlines or increasing productivity. For example, a specific performance goal could be to increase productivity by 10% over the next quarter.   

Executive coaching can also be used to prepare for a new role or position. For example, if you are transitioning to a new role or taking on new responsibilities, you may set goals for developing the skills and knowledge you need to be successful in that role. This could involve setting goals for learning new software programmes or developing a strategic plan for a new department.   

Here are some examples of specific executive coaching goals:   

  • Improve time management skills by setting and achieving specific deadlines for projects   
  • Increase self-awareness by identifying personal strengths and weaknesses   
  • Build confidence in decision making by practising making decisions based on data and analysis   
  • Develop strategies for managing conflict with colleagues or clients   
  • Prepare for a new leadership role by developing a plan for building and leading a high-performing team
